Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
This fascinating book carries the reader from preproduction to postproduction, explaining through interviews with professionals (e.g., Haskell Wexler on photography, Neil Koenigsberg on publicity) exactly what such people as the sound mixer and story analyst do in the making of a motion picture. Although presented in narrative rather than dictionary form, this work will be useful to reference librarians because of its index and glossary. Updated from the 1987 edition (LJ 11/15/87) to reflect ratings modifications and technical breakthroughs in films like Jurassic Park and Forrest Gump, this is an excellent introduction for anyone interested in film production today. Highly recommended for all film collections.
