Review: Good book - Very good book that any film student or person who wants to know and learn about cinematographic language is a great option. Great quality of the material and printing of the sheets, meets expectations. Although it is an edition from a few years ago, what is valuable is the information.
Review: Must have for anyone in the Entertainment Industry! - Definitely a book to read, it's widescreen format is kinda cool too. Everything about this book is nice, it's jam packed with real world explanations of shots and even has storyboards to accompany the writing too which I find extremely helpful. Moving on... The Contents are comprised of eight Main Chapters and a hundred and fifty four Sub Chapters for example: Basic Cinematic Techniques.........................1  Pan..............................................................2  Tilt...............................................................3 " Dolly............................................................4 " Not to mention over three hundred Movies as reference, fantastic illustrations! I use this sometimes when I'm out in the field and most of the time in studio. Again there is all aspects being shown not just Principal photography but Basic Cinematic Techniques, Composition Techniques, Crane Techniques, Movement of Camera, Perspective, Camera Techniques, Editing that's just some of the meat and potatoes under the hood of this hot rod SHOTS book. Trust me you won't be disappointed in getting this book for on the shelf or take it with you on the go in your back pack or briefcase. This book might not be by my side at the computer but I definitely keep it a few feet away on my reference bookshelf....ha ha ha. Five Stars.

*by F***R on February 11, 2022*

This is a simple, straightforward lesson in storyboarding films. The simplicity is its strength. You could keep it open as you storyboard to help make your film a strong visual story. It’s not full of unusual nuances, styles or tricks but presents clear cut visualizations to learn and use.
