Query: From an Amateur Filmmaker

As an amateur filmmaker myself, this book added an element of professionalism to my projects. Each technique is well-illustrated and clearly described. Tips on shot composition and editing were especially helpful in terms of how a technique might be incorporated artistically into a scene. A few clever tricks can produce convincing effects, like passing through a keyhole, leaping between buildings, or X-ray vision.The techniques are for every aspect of film, including lighting, sound, camera motion, even make-up. This cookbook was useful for the entire film and I recommend it to the young backyard experimenter and the aspiring indie filmmaker alike.
