Book Reviews of Producing Great Sound for Film and Video, Third Edition
Book Review: Great book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm producing an independent film, and I think this book will save me thousands of dollars in production and post production! If you're involved in a theatrical project, the audience will expect the sound they hear when they go to the movies. When you read this book you'll be able to have the script written to incorporate what the sound crew will have to do on set. So by the time you get to post production you won't have to waste time or money paying an audio professional correct what you could have got right the first time. The audience doesn't mind what camera you used as long as your project SOUNDS like it was made like Hollywood professionals. This book is all you need to do that! Plus, if you have questions, the author refers you to his website and that of a magazine where he answers questions in their online forums!
Also, this book is written so anyone can understand it, even beginners with no prior knowledge of sound!
This book is a great investment especially for indie filmmakers on limited budgets!
By the way, if you have the 2nd Edition of this book and your working on a theatrical feature, you need to get this 3rd Edition! I had read the 2nd Edition but the 3rd has a lot more info on theatrical projects.
