If you’re making a movie, one of the first things you need to do is decide what sorts of filmmaking software you are going to utilize to bring your movie to the big screen. Since most filmmaking software is super expensive, knowing what you can live with and what you can live without is essential to your filmmaking career.

My name is Jason Brubaker. I’m a Los Angeles based independent movie producer. And in the following filmmaking article, I am going to provide my personal picks for useful, no-fluff filmmaking software and tools. Many of the following recommendations are affiliate links. So if you decide one of my suggestions is the correct fit for your needs, I may receive compensation from the provider. This will not affect your purchase price. And in the event referrals aren’t cool, feel free to get the products elsewhere (totally OK!).

With that said, if you’re looking for filmmaking software, as well as a road map for how to make your movie, I have included the following step-by-step guide. Where appropriate, I have recommended various filmmaking software tools.
