Calling the shots is about a teenage boy named Sean and his friends try to make the next big cheap horror movie of the century. Sean and his friends have experience in movie making, all throughgout the summer they have make short films just for fun, not planning on doing anything big with them. The movie isn't the only thing that is on Sean's friends' mind however, they are also trying to find Sean a girlfriend hoping it will take his mind off this big movie idea.Unlike his friends the movie is the only thing that Sean wants to think about or do, nothing else matters.
Much like any other director there has been a laundry list of problems that have popped up here and there. One of these problems that Sean and his faced was of course a financial issue, that is why they need to make it as cheap as possible, also they are just teenagers, how are they supposed to get a couple thousand dollars in a matter of weeks? Another one of the issues that Sean and his friends faced is that they only have until the end of the summer to make this movie, and the book takes place in late July to early August only giving them a little under one month to create this movie.And like any other teen with a crazy idea the friends had to face all the mocking and the "you can't make a movie, you're just a kid" remarks from adults, neighbors, and other kids from their town. Do Sean and his friends end up making the movie? Well you'll just have to find out.
