Furthermore, your book is the one book that I recommend to young, aspiring people who want to learn our craft..." - Dane Lawing, DP

3.0 out of 5 stars A good lighting manual for a beginning cameraperson., 20 Oct 1998
By A Customer
Blaine Brown's book provides a decent explanation of set lighting, it's instruments and protocol. The text, though, seems to speak more to the cameraperson or AC who is curious about lighting. There is a lack of attention given to the juicers and hammers who are actually creating and shaping the light. There is a considerable amount of text granted to electrics and the distribution of power, but much more thorough and much more practically explained definitions are readily available in Harry Box's "Set Lighting Technician's Handbook."

5.0 out of 5 stars Geat book, 13 Feb 2009
By jenks (manchester) - See all my reviews
as a professional tv cameraman, now moving into teaching, i have found this book very useful, its clear, informative and i would highly recommend it for any students who want to learn basic lighting recognize some of the equipment used - the only downside is the price...maybe a student offer would be nice.
