Reviews / Votes
"In a world flooded with technology, Johnson and Radosh beautifully break down the video production process through a list of step-by-step practices. They explain the equipment as well as provide visual examples and practical exercises for students to test their skills. This book would be an exceptional addition to any hands-on production course!" -Adrienne Garvey, Lancaster Bible CollegeMore details
