The newly updated Cinematography for Directors is the essential handbook for directors and aspiring filmmakers who want to get the best visuals for their movie while establishing a collaborative relationship with their cinematographer.
Through interviews with current ASC cinematographers, and a balance between technical, aesthetic, and historical content, this book guides the director into a powerful collaboration with their closest on-set ally. Topics include selecting a cinematographer, collectively discussing the script, choosing an appropriate visual style for a film, color palette, film and digital formats, lenses, camera movement, genres, and postproduction processes--including the digital intermediate (DI). Interwoven are quotes from working ASC cinematographers.
