Description
The Grip Book, Fourth Edition has been updated and revised to be even more valuable to professional grips—the "jack-of-all-trades and
master of all" on a film or video set. Grips install, set up, maintain, and ensure the safety of all equipment needed on a set, such
as lighting stands, cameras, and any specialty equipment needed for a shoot. This new edition contains the latest information about the
latest equipment and has been updated to reflect changes in the industry including CGI screen setup and ‘cleaning up the perms.’ The
Grip Book also teaches readers how to become a professional grip and have a successful career, and will continue to be an indispensable
learning tool and reference for grips of all experience levels.
