Geuens, J-P. (2000). Film Production Theory.

Jean-Pierre Geuens has written one of very few books that attempt to relate the practical complexities and detail of the film production process to a significant body of contemporary cultural theory and film history. In critiquing the industrial mode of production exemplified by Hollywood but also widely applied within the professional sector of the Australian film and television industry, Geuens suggests that the key to more fully realizing the creative potential of film is in viewing the production stage as an exploratory one, where the focus is less on control and more on the filmmaker being open to what occurs.
