Skillset
This recently-relaunched site says it "should be the first port of call for filmmakers, employers and training providers who want advice and guidance on training and skills". And it's hard to argue with that. There's a wealth of information about what the film industry really is, and a series of storyboards which breaks down the life of a film, from conception to home entertainment. Highly accessible, and highly recommended.
