By using sequences of images, this book offers step-by-step advice on skills and techniques which can be applied to video subjects such as holidays, children and the family, weddings and other special occasions, indoor and outdoor sports, mini-drama productions and information videos. The reader is led through each stage, from picking up a camcorder for the first time and mastering the controls, to planning a shoot, post-production editing, adding soundtracks and voice-overs and preparing title sequences. The language of moving pictures is also explored, with a view to encouraging readers to develop their own creativity. The author's previous books include "The Book of Photography", "The Photographer's Handbook" and "The Complete Guide to Photography".
