—Scott Kelby, photographer, author, president of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals (NAPP)

Product Description

Book and accompanying DVD with over six hours of video training—all geared to teach you everything about shooting video with your DSLR

With the arrival of high-definition video-enabled DSLR cameras, photographers are faced with an opportunity for creativity and a competitive edge in their field unlike anything they’ve experienced before. Add to that the expanding demands from a video-hungry audience and it’s no longer a matter of if you are going to add video to your repertoire of skills, it’s when.

Here to guide you in a thorough exploration of the video-making process — from preproduction to post — and to ease your transition from still to motion are four veterans who speak the language of both photography and video fluently. With their clear, instructive approach, they quickly get you up to speed on everything from picking your gear, to properly lighting for motion, to using professional-level audio, color correction, and editing techniques, to media management and outputting, and much more. Here are just a few highlights from this richly illustrated, completely interactive book and DVD:
  • Explores the entire spectrum of video for DSLR camera owners, with recommendations on gear, planning, lighting, lenses, audio, editing, color correcting, exporting, media management, and more.
  • Covers a wide variety of shooting styles, including indoor, outdoor, studio, portrait, event, and available light.
  • Addresses technical challenges associated with DSLR video, such as camera movement, multiple camera coverage, low-light videography, and synchronized sound.
  • Explores additional creative techniques such as stop motion and timelapse photography in depth.
  • Includes a real-world example of a music video and promo package throughout the book to demonstrate concepts in action, with additional profiles of photography experts in nature, sports, commercial, and weddings and events.
The accompanying DVD contains over 6 hours of video training that delves deeper into each topic, as well as high-definition footage, hands-on project  files, and templates to experiment with and follow along.

5.0 out of 5 stars The standard text, 20 April 2010
This review is from: From Still to Motion: A Photographer's Guide to Creating Video with Your DSLR (Voices That Matter) (Paperback)
Have bought expensive DVDs on this topic - but this 300+ page text and excellent DVD surpass everything:)

Co-written by a number of experts in different fields : this multiple perspective fills in knowledge gaps.
Authors have varying degrees of previous stills photography experience.

Specific video tutorials (on included DVD) are in-depth, clearly explained and can be followed point-by-point as in a classroom.
A good example is the time-lapse tutorial explaining time-lapse post production/creation in Adobe After Effects.

There seems to be no bias towards specific manufacturers : all main brands are presented.
Has informed almost all my buying decisions to good effect.

Text is clear and succinct with many explanatory photographs. There are no theoretical ramblings - just enough background theory to underpin practice.
Interview summaries with stills photographers who have transitioned to dslr video emphasise important points.
Don't scan read: go from start to finish and try relevant DVD tutorials.

Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and clear book., 3 Dec 2010
This review is from: From Still to Motion: A Photographer's Guide to Creating Video with Your DSLR (Voices That Matter) (Paperback)
This book provides a comprehensive guide to shooting with video on your DSLR, as being new to this , but very familiar with shooting digital photos, there is a different mindset and technical data needed to do the same when filming , it is not just as simple as pressing the film button and off you go, so I would highly recommend this book, as it has helped me in making the transition, and although there are new technical matters to learn , it does not baffle the reader but explains them clearly, so until I am fully versed in all matters of filming , this book stays in my bag.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must buy!, 14 Dec 2010
By 
Mark Baynes (Brighton, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: From Still to Motion: A Photographer's Guide to Creating Video with Your DSLR (Voices That Matter) (Paperback)
If like me you are making the move from stills to video then the title of this book should be the only clue you need as to its target audience!

Changing over to video means that a lot of really basics issues need to be learned again from a slightly different angle. This book takes you through all the basics, doesn't assume you have a huge budget to spend and also comes with a DVD packed with stuff.

Highly recommended.
