The Digital Filmmaking Handbook: The definitive guide to digital filmmaking

Winter said Best book I have found on digital filmmaking and written by someone with comprehensive knowledge and experience. This is the third book on digital filmmaking I have purchased and the only one I can recommend to others. It is very well done with illustrations for topics where this is needed to understand the information and the concepts being presented. It shows that the author and the publisher took the time to get it right and did not rush something to print (like the Dummies book on DSLR filmmaking).The author clearly understands the technology and the very different camera and gear options and covers the pros and cons of them in adequate detail so that the reader has an excellent basis for making their own purchase decisions and a much bet. Good as a checklist for both pre and post production Very informative. Good as a checklist for both pre and post production. It has all the bases to be covered. Good "Tips" too.. Five Stars Reads easily and great visuals for making first time films .
