Steve D. KatzFilm Directing: Shot by Shot - 25th Anniversary Edition

Jani Ahonen
As crazy as it sounds, there aren't that many books written about directing that cover the whole process a director goes through when making a single film.
There is so much more work directors have to do than just direct actors, which in reality is just one small part of what they do. Directors have to communicate between different departments on what kind of film they are looking to create so that everyone from the art department to the film editor knows exactly what type of film they are working on.
This book simplifies the steps a director goes through when making a film and is a must-read for anyone wishing to understand the role of the director.
