Product Description

Product Description

The authors of this text cover the practical, technical and theoretical aspects of documentary filming, from fundraising to exhibition. The first section discusses filmmaking styles and the assumptions that may hide unacknowledged behind them, as well as the practical and ethical issues involved in moving from fieldwork to filmaking. The second section explains the technical aspects, including how to select and use equipment, how to shoot film and video, and the reasons for choosing one or the other, and how to record sound. Finally, the third section outlines the entire process of filmaking: preproduction, production, postproduction and distribution.

I have read many books about filmmaking and documenatry filmmaking. This book is the best so far, I can recommend it to everyone interested in antropology and film making.
It is written in a way easy to understand, very informative and well structured. The chapters cover everything you need to know from theory to practice.
I truly enjoy reading it, great book.

Good Resource for Documentarians 5 Sep 2000
By Arun K. Das - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Although this book is geared toward professional, experienced filmmakers, film students or aspiring documentarians will learn from this text, as well. The book has thoughtful details, descriptive paragraphs, and helpful advice on how to create effective "ethnographic films." But despite this focus, the book's guidelines can be applied to any kind of documentary project. It's also simply a good read.
