This book was the text used in my first production class in college while pursuing my Journalism degree. This book and that class made me realize early on that I wanted to be behind the camera instead of in front of it. That was 1992. I'm now a Production Manager and Senior Editor making training videos for the US Army. We have 23 field shooters, most of which came to us with little to no experience. I've been at my job for 10 years now, and to this day, this book is the first thing we give to our new videographers in training them. It is written in a simple and to the point manner. It's not flashy by any stretch of the imagination, but when you need to convey simple principles like the "rule of thirds", depth of field, focal length, and other basic principles-- this book is indispensable. If you can still find a copy and need a quick, easy to read and digest guide to the fundamentals of harnessing light with a lens, this book is still on the top of my list.
