Editorial Reviews
Review
"In Designer Drafting for the Entertainment World, Patricia Woodbridge has created both a thorough primer on designer drafting for all the entertainment industry and a rich inspirational album of the very best of current designer draftings." - Steve Nelson, Dramatics, April 2001
"Good scenic design and drafting is expanding even into the virtual worlds and this is a great book to expose a younger draftsperson and aspiring designer to the ever-widening scope of opportunities available to those with scenic design training." - Dramatics, April 2001 -- Review
Review
"I have been looking for a book that not only focuses on the technical aspects of theater drafting, but also on why we choose to draft the way we do and how it relates to sketchings and renderings. This book covers that ground exceptionally well."
-Michael O'Nele, Univ. of Memphis
"Very good comprehensive view of drafting applied to all areas of the entertainment industry."
-Eric Olson, Samford University
"Tells not only what to do, but why. The most complete book on entertainment drafting yet."
-Charles E. Williams, University of Toledo
"most thorough and best drafting book on the market...the examples in particular are informative."
"an excellent reference book to be used during a course..."
