Cinematography for Directors - Jacqueline B. Frost

'Cinematography for Directors: A Guide for Creative Collaboration' by Jacqueline B. Frost (Michael Wiese Productions 280 page paperback, 2nd Edition)

Newly updated, this is the essential handbook for the director or aspiring filmmaker seeking the best visuals for their movie while establishing a collaborative relationship with their cinematographer.

Through interviews with working members of the American Society of Cinematographers, and a balance between technical, aesthetic, and historical content, Frost guides the director into a powerful collaboration with their closest on-set ally. Topics include selecting a cinematographer, collectively discussing the script, visual style, colour palette, and film and digital formats.
