5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent film resource, easy to read,
By Tony Levelle (Lower Lake, Ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dictionary of Film Terms (Twayne's Filmmakers) (Paperback)
One of the problems with studying and writing about film is a lack of vocabulary. Without a vocabulary, you end up 're-inventing the wheel' as you try to understand films, scenes, and directorial techniques.
This easy to read book is a good way to learn film terminology and film techniques in general. If the book has a weakness it would be the lack of digital terminology. I think this is a minor issue. The basic techniques of film, the grammar and logic of film, remain the same whether the originating media is celluloid or digital bits. Highly recommended. Well written, comprehensive, good illustrations, and easy to read. |
