Based on their combined fifty years in the film and television industry, authors Kris Malkiewicz and M. David Mullen lay clear and concise groundwork for basic film techniques, focusing squarely on the cameraman's craft. Readers will then learn step-by-step how to master more advanced techniques in postproduction, digital editing, and overall film production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis completely revised third edition, with more than 200 new illustrations, will provide a detailed look at:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow expert camera operation can produce consistent, high-quality results \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to choose film stocks for the appearance and style of the finished film \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to measure light in studio and location shooting for the desired appearance \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to coordinate visual and audio elements to produce high-quality sound tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether the final product is a major motion picture, an independent film, or simply a home video, \u003ci\u003eCinematography\u003c\/i\u003e can help any filmmaker translate his or her vision into a quality film.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Library Journal \u003cp\u003eWritten by two veteran cinematographers, this third edition of a classic text (first published in 1973) may be the definitive guide to cinematography for filmmakers, students, and teachers. In addition to updated coverage of equipment essential to shooting a film, various film stocks, lighting, and different tools that can help enhance the look of a film (e.g., camera filters), the book delves into nuanced techniques of cinematography such as pushing (trying to derive more light out of exposed film than was actually available). Most interesting are the examples from popular films that demonstrate the more sophisticated methods-Stanley Kubrick, for example, illuminated a scene in Barry Lyndon using only candlelight and extremely fast lenses. Digital cinematography receives only cursory treatment; the mastery of this work is limited to the art of shooting and developing actual film stocks. The authors, however, do discuss the integration of film with the digital medium: filmmakers may shoot in film, finish in digital video, and then print back to film for a variety of technical, financial, and sometimes aesthetic reasons. This book is recommended for most general collections and essential for film schools and schools with extensive arts collections.-Michael Tierno, New York Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHumor \u0026amp; Entertainment\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003ePerforming Arts\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Used - Very Good","offer_id":49175633330366,"sku":"074326438X-3","price":17.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/71bB19seRPL.jpg?v=1790610188","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/074326438x-cinematography_third_edition","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
