View Full Version : Book suggestion Loud Orange Cat 11-30-2006, 07:56 AM I'm looking for a book on cinematography. There's way too many options out there to choose from (Hundreds of titles are listed on Amazon.com) so I thought I'd ask what you found to be an excellent educational reference. What do you suggest? knightly 11-30-2006, 07:59 AM what part of cinematography? Lighting, camera blocking or the technical bits of camera work (film/exposure levels etc.)?

Thanks, Indie. Where's my credit card? Oh, the wife has it again. :cry: knightly 11-30-2006, 01:18 PM I'm currently reading "The Grammar of the Film Language" from the SCSU library (free) and the "Directing: Shot by Shot" series by Katz is good.
