The Video Camera Handbook

Many people today now own a video camera, particularly as good quality digital versions are widely available at a reasonable price. However, most people do not use their cameras to their full potential. All too often the end result is over-long, jumpy, blurred, and often rather dull!

The Video Camera Handbook explains how to get the best possible results from your video camera. It explains what equipment is available and how to use it; how to plan your film; shooting techniques; lighting; sound; editing; special effects and archiving, and even looks at how to produce a short film.

With informative and entertaining text, complemented by photographs and specially commissioned illustrations, this excellent guide will enable anyone to produce memorable, good quality films that can be enjoyed for many years.
