Making a Video

by Nick Hale

Published 1 January 1997
The possibilities for film and video are great, anyone with a message, be it corporate, documentary, propaganda or entertainment can make a video. Audiences can see it at home, conferences, on television via cable or satellite, or even in a cinema. The technology for shooting and editing is accessible to the non-professional, but bewildering. This book explores ways of handling the technical side, and still keeping up with techniques for successful communications. It explains what is involved from conception through scripting, budgeting, shooting, and editing to final delivery and exhibition.
