Like the Berlin Wall, the seemingly impenetrable colossus of Hollywood, with its enslaving influence on American culture, will someday come crashing down. Thankfully, inexpensive technologies, independent distribution methods, and a rising tide of innovative, Christ-loving visionaries are evidence of unprecedented opportunities for Christians who are willing to "take every [frame] captive" through a presuppositionally biblical approach to making films outside the Hollywood leviathan. In this groundbreaking book, experienced filmographer and CGI artist Isaac Botkin prepares Christians for successful Christ-honoring leadership as writers, directors, and producers. Botkin has worked as both a Hollywood outsider and an insider (with one of the most famous production houses in the world). In Outside Hollywood, he smashes the myth of methodological and cultural neutrality and offers a paradigm for developing a family-friendly approach to this hugely important field of cultural influence. Readers will benefit from his insights on proper training and qualifications, courageous script writing, equipment, common mistakes of new filmmakers, and professional directing.
