VIDEO RULES. How to think about how to shoot.

Shooting like a pro isn't rocket science. It's brain surgery.

A few notes about the book from David Lent:

I love to shoot. I've loved it for so long I feel compelled to share with others the wonders and rewards that come from communicating with a camera. So I spent three years distilling four decades of know how - shooting news, documentaries, sports, business and entertainment - into a set of six basic principles - what I call The Laws of Camerawork.

Whether you're a working professional, an aspiring filmmaker or the home/office paparazzi, the power of the medium - to inform, entertain, inspire - flows not from the camera but from the craft: fine-tuning a viewer's perceptions. So if you think of the camera as the viewer's brain and yourself as a surgeon, you're ahead of the game.
