Video Shooter

Video Shooter is an essential guidebook for anybody interested in telling a story with a DV cam. Barry Braverman is a highly experienced shooter whose name is gold in the field. This book covers everything from framing a shot, to lighting, to the type of camera (and tripod) one should use, and perhaps most importantly--how to translate the use of all the equipment and techniques into a story. Humorous and opinionated, the author provides anecdotes and illustrations that help you to learn the tricks of the trade. He gets right to the point of what you need to know to get good shots--and on a budget.
