Book description
Book and accompanying video with over six hours of video
training–all geared to teach you everything about shooting
video with your DSLR
With the arrival of high-definition video-enabled DSLR cameras,
photographers are faced with an opportunity for creativity and a
competitive edge in their field unlike anything they’ve
experienced before. Add to that the expanding demands from a
video-hungry audience and it’s no longer a matter of if you
are going to add video to your repertoire of skills, it’s
when.
Here to guide you in a thorough exploration of the video-making
process – from preproduction to post – and to ease your
transition from still to motion are four veterans who speak the
language of both photography and video fluently. With their clear,
instructive approach, they quickly get you up to speed on
everything from picking your gear, to properly lighting for motion,
to using professional-level audio, color correction, and editing
techniques, to media management and outputting, and much more. Here
are just a few highlights from this richly illustrated, completely
interactive book and video:
Explores the entire spectrum of video for DSLR camera owners, with recommendations on gear, planning, lighting, lenses, audio, editing, color correcting, exporting, media management, and more.
Covers a wide variety of shooting styles, including indoor, outdoor, studio, portrait, event, and available light.
Addresses technical challenges associated with DSLR video, such as camera movement, multiple camera coverage, low-light videography, and synchronized sound.
Explores additional creative techniques such as stop motion and timelapse photography in depth.
Includes a real-world example of a music video and promo package throughout the book to demonstrate concepts in action, with additional profiles of photography experts in nature, sports, commercial, and weddings and events.
The accompanying video contains over 6 hours of video training
that delves deeper into each topic, as well as high-definition
footage, hands-on project files, and templates to experiment
with and follow along.
