Pauline B Rogers, A staff writer at the International Cinematographer Magazine, a trade magazine published by the union of cinematographers Local 600 IATSE
in LA, Pauline B. Rogers has published 1200 plus articles and three books (Contemporary Cinematographers on Their Art, More Contemporary
Cinematographers on Their Art, The Art of Visual Effects) on the entertainment industry. One of the acknowledged experts on how movies
are made, she often enjoys access to virtually closed sets and has been able to procure interviews with difficult to reach top of the
list entertainment professionals.
Description
The twelve interviews in this book cover all aspects of cinematography from pre-production planning to post-production, special effects,
aerial photography, and second unit. Each interview gives a behind-the-scenes look at how some of the most popular shots in movies and
television shows were lit and captured.
Technically and philosophically oriented, Contemporary Cinematographers on Their Art explores
the tools, trends, personalities, and professional achievements of contemporary cinematographers, highlighting the behind-the-scenes
struggles of the business of making motion pictures. Each chapter delves into the personal challenges, political properties, inter-departmental
interactions, and artistic achievements of the artists who bring scripts to life through their choice of cameras, lights, lenses, filters,
gels, and other supporting equipment.
Covering a variety of film and television genres--from soaps to half-hour sitcoms, to cable and
network productions and low- and big-budget features--each interview explores the tools cinematographers use to capture their shots,
from traditional equipment to innovative camera and lighting "toys," as well as the integration of mechanical and computer graphic effects.
Audience
People working in the film and television industry specializing in cinematography areas: DPs, camera operators, camera assistants, CG
operators; independent film and video makers, students, wannabes, amateurs.
