Focal Press Book: Video Shooter: Mastering Storytelling Techniques (3rd Edition)
Video Shooter: Mastering Storytelling Techniques, from Focal Press and written by Barry Braverman, takes you beyond the technicalities of sensors, lenses, and tripods, to a practical and inspired appreciation for the craft of the camera. Braverman draws from decades of personal experience on high-profile documentaries and feature films to explain the makings of a compelling visual storyteller.
With wit and humor, this 3rd edition Softcover book explores the discipline of the 2D and 3D image-maker, from the need to maintain a clear point of view and eye-line, to the emotional impact of lens choice and color palette. You`ll learn to avoid generic shots and angles, and apply the principle of exclusion to maintain rigorous control of the frame. You`ll understand how close-ups can drive a story and how composition, selective focus, and simple lighting direct the viewer`s eye inside the frame. Most of all you`ll learn not to make it too easy - by challenging your viewers, you`ll elevate the value of your work and your reputation as a craftsman.
Barry Braverman is a cinematographer with over thirty years experience in television documentaries and feature films. His credits include Wes Anderson`s Moonrise Kingdom (2012), The Darjeeling Limited (2007), as well as National Geographic TV Specials, HBO`s `First Look` and CBS News` Sunday Morning. Braverman is a member of the Hollywood Cinematographer Guild and conducts regular 2D and 3D camera workshops around the world. He lives in Studio City, California.
