Wildly successful, he was obviously compelled to revise and publish a 2nd edition, which is what I'm reviewing now. Also note that Kenworthy followed up "Master Shots Vol. Vol 1. At the time of its release, nothing like it existed, and with the arguable exception of Gustavo Mercado's "The Filmmaker's Eye", nothing comes close e This is the book that got author Christopher Kenworthy started.
At the time of its release, nothing like it existed, and with the arguable exception of Gustavo Mercado's "The Filmmaker's Eye", nothing comes close even now. Competition remains the least of the author's worries. Kenworthy's claim in this foreword that seasoned directors have written to thank him with many "letters and emails" may not be entirely exaggerated.
For those of you in a hurry, just skip to a section of choice and bam! You can frame and move the camera like Spielberg or Ridley Scott! It might not be the popular thing to say, but I believe it is with "Master Shots: Vol 3" that Christopher Kentworthy finally found his groove.
Volume 1 is comprehensive and useful enough, but relies far too heavily on practicality and 'quick tips' than lasting value. Volume 3 is more thoughtfully written. One last thing. And this is kinda important. No mention is made in this book of cinematographers responsible for the films Kentworthy so vigorously dissects. I have rued and cried in my reviews of Volume 2 and 3 about this unfair policy of not crediting cinematographer.
A policy that has continued unabated and was rarely if ever challenged. What a shame. Apr 14, Reagan Jones rated it liked it. Jun 21, Herman Litt rated it it was amazing Shelves: acting-film. Very useful whether for film and video, cinematography, cgi or performing arts. Jun 22, Uriha rated it really liked it.
Interesting, helpful. Feb 27, Ren Santos rated it it was amazing. Very simple and useful reference guide. A must have for beginners and pros alike. Dec 05, Lyf rated it liked it. Overall a very good, simple and useful reference book. This is a book with great tips and techniques. I liked that it even gave suggestions on which lens to use for the different shots.
Jun 18, Olivia rated it liked it Shelves: comics. Very useful. Knowledge can easily be transferred to the art of comic making, since so much of making comics is the deciding of what angles are most effective to draw the scenes in.
Oct 09, Will Caster rated it it was amazing. This film directing book is a great book to have for all film-making weather your new or well experience in the field of film-making. I would highly recommend this book to have in your tool-kit I found the book quite useful but I had problems with the quality of the images. Apr 22, Srinidhi rated it liked it. Very good book Jan 17, Paul Davis rated it it was amazing. I've read the first two of these books before, but I find them helpful to re-read to find any inspiration before filming something.
It's rare that I actually pull from the book, but they're good to get the mind working creatively about shooting angels. Will read the third one soon. Mar 12, Steve rated it it was amazing. Loosely technical. You still need to work throught these shots as you go or need them. Every filmmaker should work through these to understand how they really work so you can then bend or break the rules.
Great intro to the basics. The stills on the right page were sometimes not helpful at all. Very useful reference guide. Feb 01, stains rated it really liked it. Many are kinda hard to understand on how it should be filmed. May 22, Bealsebub rated it it was amazing.
I look forward to getting every book in this series. What a triumphant collection of technique, style, and reference for filmmakers and film lovers everywhere. I had the best shit of my life last night. It was partly because of all the fiber in the beans I had for lunch, but most of it was due to this simple and succinct guide on choosing the right camera angle and motion for particular scenes.
