For courses in Introduction to Film. This text presents the study of film in an innovative new structure, one that emphasizes the interplay of three frequently conflicting elements: Art, Technology, and Business. Illustrating how movies are created from the beginning (the script writing stage) to the end (marketing and distribution), the text lays the foundation for understanding the practical technique, the specialized language, and, most importantly, an aesthetic appreciation of motion pictures. The strength of this text is that it gives the student a realistic understanding of how the process of filmmaking works, along with a greater sense of the informed and skillful choices that its artists and technicians make in creating their art.Peacock, Richard B. is the author of 'Art of Movie Making Script to Screen', published 2000 under ISBN 9780130879424 and ISBN 0130879428.
