5.0 out of 5 stars
Amazingly comprehensive,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Video Production Handbook (Paperback)
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.

Very good - but often old - non-digital era - point of view,
By Pierre A. Kandorfer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Video Production Handbook (Paperback)
Solid, very good standard info. However, you recognize that the basic concept of this book was written long time ago...

Video Production Handbook - Review,
By C. Volschenk "CV" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Video Production Handbook (Paperback)
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.
