Book Reviews of The Five C's of Cinematography: Motion Picture Filming Techniques

Book Review: A Bible
Summary: 5 Stars

This is really one book that will be read and referred to throughout my professional career as a camera operator for film and electronic cinematography. It has all the information, know what is in here, and then, if lucky you may find an opportunity to break the rules and create an innovation. It is my bible that I cherish!!

Book Review: THIS BOOK IS 30 YEARS OLD AND HAS NOT BEEN REVISED AT ALL!!
Summary: 1 Stars

YES THIS BOOK IS OVER 30 YEARS OLD..COPYRIGHT 1965...UPON OPENING THE FIRST PAGE OF THE BOOK I SEE MY GRANDFATHER IN A SUIT...NOT TO MENTION THE ANCIENT EDITING EQUIPEMENT THEY MENTION.THE TECHNIQUES IN THE BOOK ARE VERY BASIC AND SOME ARE MORE DEVELOPED UPON...WHICH THIS NON-REVISED BOOK FAILS EVEN TO MENTION..SO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR HISTORY OF CINEMATOGRAPHY THIS BOOK IS THE ONE FOR YOU..IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR TECHNIQUES FOR THE NEW MILLENIUM DONT PURCHASE THIS BOOK!!

Book Review: Great! What it takes to really shoot & edit
Summary: 5 Stars

There's no getting around the fact that sequences and shot selection make any motion picture or video work. But, rather than learn the basics and apply them, folks jump to jazzy stuff like helocopter shots or talking hardware spec's. This book talks about shots, sequences all in with a focus on what to shoot and how it cuts together.

Basic techniques are directly applied in a practical fashion. Use it to get a solid grounding before getting stars in your eyes.

Great for new cinematographers and news videographers
