Description:

As a director, you must have a concept, a "director's idea," to shape your approach to the actors, the camera, and the script. With this clear idea your film will be deeper and more effective, and you will be able to differentiate--and therefore make the choice--between competent directing and great directing. Using case studies of famous directors as real-world examples of "director's ideas," the author has provided the theory and the practice to help directors immediately improve their work. *Improve your work and make your film deeper, more layered, and more effective *Book is a great blend of theory and practice *Case studies of famous directors bring the concepts to life
