“Michael, as a filmmaker himself, understands more than other publishers the artistry of TV and filmmaking. It was my great pleasure and honor to have him and MWP publish my humor how-to, WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT? The creative freedom and support he gave me were idyllic.” Ja
“I've known Michael for more than 25 years and worked with him on various projects throughout that time span. His creativity and insight as a producer and promoter never failed to energize his support team in untold ways. His named connected with a project always brings a enthusiastic response from my staff because we know newsworthiness and originality will be the hallmarks of our campaign on his behalf.”
“Michael helped us quite a lot in the early years of PBS Home Video. Although it seems obvious now, at the time few people purchased, rather than rented, videos. Michael's imagination, creativity and wise counsel helped us design several of our cornerstone releases and to help build a brand-new market.”
Michael Wiese Productions is the number one publisher of books for screenwriters and indie filmmakers in the world. Highly recommended! -Taylor
“Michael creates the best film making books in the industry, from creating a film concept to getting it sold, and all of the execution steps of working with actors, location, filming, and post production. The books are professional yet can also be used by aspiring film makers. Michael and his team including Ken Lee are well known in the film and publishing industry.”
“Michael Wiese is a gifted media entrepreneur and industry visionary --he's also impeccably honest and diligent in executing successfully what he takes on...i look forward to having the opportunity to work with him again in the future, as we have done so successfully in the past.”
"The first step in the difficult journey of filmmaking and screenwriting is knowledge of the craft and industry. The books from Michael Wiese Productions will start you in the right direction and serve as reliable reference points on your path to success."
“The field of books about the entertainment industry has become cluttered with publishers who dabble in the area without a specific focus on it. Michael Wiese is one of the best publishers in this field because he specializes in this area and consistently selects authors that have an actual mastery of their subject and can communicate their knowledge effectively. I am proud to be associated with Michael Wiese.”
“As Director of Eastman Kodak's Worldwide Student Filmmaker Program, I had the pleasure of working with Michael for several years presenting workshops for student filmmakers at the International Cannes Film Festival. Kodak sponsored student interns (over a hundred) working in The American Pavilion during the Cannes film festival---these interns were students interested in production and the motion picture business from dozens of the top film schools in the US and Canada, and around the world. For several years in the early 2000s, Michael presented a full day workshop to these interns which dealt with independent film production, financing, development, and marketing and distribution. Of all the great things that happened to these students while at Cannes, Michael's seminar was always a distinct highlight of their experience. He is a natural presenter who knows the nuances of the entire spectrum of independent production from a true insider's perspective. He was spontaneous and creative with the students, and very skilled at involving them with Q&A and other activity. His development tutorials are still being talked about by those who were there. The students always gave him high marks, he delivered on Kodak's goals to promote film and understanding of the business, and it was a delight working with such an accomplished professional.”
“When I wrote my book about freelance writing for Michael's publishing shingle, he was always supportive, encouraging, and forthcoming. He is also an effective regular communicator and takes a personal interest in all of the projects that come to his company. Furthermore, Michael is an accomplished filmmaker - his HARDWARE WARS was a cult classic!!!”Terms of Use | Privacy Policy | Sitemap | Articles
