Former film adjuncts Ramin Bahrani and John Daschbach provided short example films which are used as case studies in the book and streamed on the companion website. Films directed by Profs. Andrew Lund and Shanti Thakur are also mentioned as examples in the book. In addition, many Film & Media students and alumni worked on creating the second edition figures and website content.
