The Filmmaker’s Eye: Learning and Breaking the Rules of Cinematic Composition”
Written By: Gustavo Mercado
This is the only book that combines conceptual and practical instruction on
creating polished and eloquent images for film and video with the technical
know-how to achieve them.
Loaded with hundreds of full-color examples, “The Filmmaker’s Eye” is a focused,
easy-to-reference guide that shows you how to become a strong visual storyteller
through smart, effective choices for your shots.
After a short introduction to basic principles, a variety of shots are
deconstructed in the following format:
