Basic Studio Directing by Rod Fairweather, Focal Press, Oxford, 1998
- p12 ‘shouting gets in the way of useful talkback’
- p14 ‘producer and director must work as a team’ - technical teams must follow the director
- ‘on air time and exact duration’ p18
- p24 Focal length ‘If parallel light is shone into a lens the distance to the point of focus behind a lens is its focal length
- fnumbers: we use an iris (a variable size hole) in lens to control the amount of light let through
- the more we open the iris the smaller the f number
- each stop lets in twice as much light as the previous field
- Semi profile shot, 2 shot
- looking room, head room, not centre framing, balancing shots
- non-horizontal lines
- inexperienced directors have nothing in foreground whilst crabbing
- p100 ‘slowly zooming can be highly effective’
- can be visually dull without reaction shots
