The Fundamentals of Film Making

Rezensionen / Stimmen

I am very impressed with the quality and content of this publication. It provides a very comprehensive and accessible introductory text on the subject. Both the Fundamentals I have seen follow a pattern of beautifully designed pages, the text is very well considered and reflected in the design. * Andrew Kulman, Birmingham City University, UK * The layout is clear, interesting and engaging. The text is to the point, using the images and other graphics to help with the delivery of information. I like the look and feel of the book. * Robert Richardson, Humber Institute of Technology, Canada * A number of our students pursue careers in independent and documentary film-making and the book has proved very useful in supporting them through a recent Enterprise and Business module and giving them a grounding in how films are funded. * Christian Lloyd, Leeds College of Art, UK * An excellent introduction into film-making, with practical advice and a good amount of technical information. * Michael Smith, Leeds College of Art, UK * Excellent book, beautifully laid out and designed, covering concisely and thoroughly the whole film production process. * Nick Cope, University of Sunderland, UK * An excellent text for introductory film-making courses. * Dave Peacock, Seattle Pacific University, USA * Beautifully designed and executed book that would be ideal for an introductory
course in a liberal arts environment. * Thomas J. Weber, Arts Institute of Pittsburgh, USA * This title is very relevant to my first year courses and, as from Sept. 2012, I am making it a core text (essential purchase). Dynamic. Informative and clear. Those students to whom I've showed it were enthused. * Ashley Gaskin, Institute of Technology Tralee, Ireland * Very relevant, attractive layout with lots of useful information which is not patronising. * Beth Cowell, Coleg Menai, UK * I love these books because they are simple, easy to read with a useful index and excellent images. * - * Barnwell has written a fine introductory guide to filmmaking. She has managed to condense a lot of information into an easy-to-read reference guide. Film students of today, you never had it so easy. -- Bill Kallay * FromScripttoDVD.com, November 2010 *
