5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly comprehensive
This book covers it all. It will take an interested videography student through every facet of putting together a video production project. There is indepth technical explanations and diagrams for camera usage, lighting your set & capturing the sound, as well as plenty of helpful advice on matters of process and taste.

This book is not digitally savvy. It covers...

3.0 out of 5 stars Very good - but often old - non-digital era - point of view
Solid, very good standard info. However, you recognize that the basic concept of this book was written long time ago...

This book covers it all. It will take an interested videography student through every facet of putting together a video production project. There is indepth technical explanations and diagrams for camera usage, lighting your set & capturing the sound, as well as plenty of helpful advice on matters of process and taste.

This book is not digitally savvy. It covers proper technique and procedures, however it leaves the product choices up to you.

There is a lot of material in this book. The print is small, the pages are large, and there are plenty of them.

2.0 out of 5 stars Video Production Handbook - Review, November 11, 2006
Good book but the material is somewhat "old" - no longer cutting edge in my personal opinion. I would have purchased a different book given another choice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do NOT buy the first edition., February 19, 2008
This review is from: Video Production Handbook, Second Edition (Paperback)
I don't know what I was thinking. I bought a USED copy, but it was a first edition from 1987 or so. Editing was done by cutting tape! haha

I hear that this is a fantastic book, but since I have the 1st edition only, it was mostly worthless to me. However, most lighting concepts were still good basic knowledge.

DO NOT BUY THE FIRST EDITION!
