About the Book

This is a no-nonsense, straight-forward instructional book guiding your mindset about technical specifications as you set out to craft your first (or hundredth) feature film. Technology for major motion pictures has evolved faster than industry professionals' ability to relay appropriate information to current and aspiring filmmakers. At the same time, digital cinema equipment is cheaper and easier to access than it ever has been in history!

This book is here to help bridge the gap between the high-end finished deliverable ready for broadcast, film festivals, or streaming, to anyone who wants to work in filmmaking or just know more about the media they consume. This book isn't going to teach you how to point and shoot a camera, or write a script, or light a scene, or how to use software to craft your edit together. What it does accomplish is telling you exactly what kind of media you need to produce on-set to ensure future-proofing your movie for the most high-end specifications: Dolby Vision UHD with 5.1 Surround Sound.

Whether you're a 20-year veteran or more working in Hollywood who wants to know exactly what the most high-end digital cinema technology is capable of now, or a high school student thinking about pursuing media production professionally, or just a curious hobbyist who wants to know how digital movies get made-this book will tell you exactly what you need to know about the technical parameters of contemporary digital filmmaking.

As a 16-year veteran in major motion picture post-production, I experienced first hand how the creative-types in production never got a chance to rally with anyone in their post team who really knows their stuff. This book puts all that technical jargon into its simplest terms for the director, cinematographer, producer, or aspiring editor who wants to know the parameters through which a movie must pass to get made and craft the best-looking imagery that flows seamlessly through a high-end post production pipeline. If you buy and read this book, you will develop a vernacular and technical understanding in digital cinema production that will set you apart from just about anyone else, and make the creative process for crafting a film together that much easier to understand and do.
