Video Production: Disciplines and Techniques
This book is one of the most comprehensive and up-to-date texts on the market for television production. . . . The authors give clear guidance on important 'big-picture' issues such as pre-production and clarity in terminology when directing. At the same time, this text gives 'fine point' focus on issues such as setting up a shot to provide a clear axis of action for the viewers. This is an excellent textbook, which I would strongly recommend for any university program. --Shawn R. Hughes, Lubbock Christian UniversityThe authors have been diligent in updating this text for the ever-changing landscape of video production by adding topics such as solid state media to introductory chapters. . . . [The book] should be used in classes where concepts are executed off the page, and I think the authors pedagogical approach mirrors that goal. --Marie M. Elliott, Valdosta State UniversityI really like the introduction and production overview in Chapter 1. This critical section upon which all other information builds is brilliantly structured and complete. --David Reeder, Suffolk University
