Behind-the-scenes
In
release.History
Shorter behind-the-scenes documentaries are often used as a bonus on DVDs, as it offers more insight into the film, how it was made, and to credit the film crew. Occasionally, some films have included a "making of the making-of" as a joke.[1] The making-of is also often released for TV as a part of the promotion of the film.
Feature-length examples
- Burden of Dreams, the Fitzcarraldo making-of [2]
- Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse, the Apocalypse Now making-of [3]
- Lost in La Mancha, a making-of documentary of the failed The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, which was eventually completed more than 15 years later [4]
