Reviews

The Complete Guide to Film and Digital Production is exactly what it’s title says it is: complete. It’s a terrific all-in-one guide to the ins and outs of production, from planning to distribution to marketing, from an experienced professional and professor who understands how the industry has changed over the past decade. It’s an essential volume for any production library or classroom.
