Chain of title

suzanne’s book

In 1999 Suzanne Lyons launched her production company, Snowfall Films. Since then she’s produced features with names like Naomi Watts, Christopher Walken, and Wynona Ryder, she’s won BAFTAs, gotten major festival love, and distributed through biggies like Screengems and Lionsgate. She decided to codify what she knew into a course and a book and has been helping indie filmmakers build their craft ever since. We’ll talk about the art and craft and business of low budget filmmaking. 

 

We talk about several books Suzanne recommends including: Jack Canfield's The Success Principles, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, and Creativity Inc. by Ed Catmull.

We talk about legal contract expert Mark Litwak and filmmaker David Valdez and Clint Eastwood's Malpaso Films.
