"Most folks who write about doing sound for moving pictures, on film or on video, focus on the sexy stuff--mostly writing music, sometimes doing foley, often talking technical. Jay Rose doesn't mess around. He digs right into the hardcore side of audio for moving pictures -- recording and editing dialog, sound effects, and music. He debunks common myths, shows the reader how to make do in limited-budget, time-constrained situations, and puts it all in context on a technical level. Producing Great Sound for Film and Video is an invaluable collection of step-by-step how-to information combined with the technical reasons things do or don't work. It's essential reading for anyone serious about making a living doing moving pictures."
- Dominic Milano, Digital Video Magazine

"Crammed full of practical advice on recording, editing, and mixing audio for your production, including many of the technical basics."
- Trish Meyer, Cybmotion

"Having read through this book I am now beginning to appreciate the depth of information that Jay Rose has put into this work. He combines tricky scientific and technical details with a writing style that makes the book an easy and interesting read - which makes it more than suitable both as a 'must have' for anyone wanting to make a career in sound and a 'should read' for anyone already involved in production at any level."
