Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The first comprehensive examination of the cinematographer's art, Making Pictures presents incisive analyses of 100 visually stunning films--radical classics like Battleship Potemkin (1925), Jules et Jim (1965), and The Elephant Man (1980)--along with a complete technical and creative history of the cameraperson's unique craft. The 500 illustrations include a wealth of location shots and expository stills, and contributions by seminal figures in the field make this an essential reference. Book News Annotation:In this impressive volume, IMAGO, the Federation of European
Cinematographers (founded in 1992), selected 100 European films to
represent European accomplishment in the cinema. Stills from each
film are presented with a text that describes the film's aims,
innovations, narrative, and technique, with particular emphasis given
to camera techniques. Two lengthy chapters, on the history of
European cinema (by Michael Leitch) and the medium of cinematography
(by Cathy Greenhalgh) introduce the survey of 100 films. The book
concludes with seven chapters on technical equipment, including film,
cameras, studios, and lighting.
