A New York Times 2019 holiday gift guide pick
The Art of Film Projection: A Beginner's Guide is a beautifully produced, comprehensive outline of the materials, equipment and knowledge needed to present the magic of cinema to an enthralled audience.
Part manual and part manifesto, The Art of Film Projection compiles more than 50 years of expertise from the staff of the world-renowned George Eastman Museum and the students of the L. Jeffrey Selznick School of Film Preservation into the most complete and accessible guide to film projection ever produced. The product of more than ten years of painstaking work by renowned film preservation specialists, and featuring a foreword by Tacita Dean and Christopher Nolan, this volume addresses a changing film landscape.
No film comes to life until it is shown on the big screen, but with the proliferation of digital movie theaters, the expertise of film projection has become increasingly rare. Written for both the casual enthusiast and the professional projectionist in training, this book demystifies the process of film projection and offers an in-depth understanding of the aesthetic, technical and historical features of motion pictures. Fully accessible to the layperson, student, technician or scholar, the book is designed to be used: richly illustrated with photographs and easy-to-read diagrams, it is printed at a size that is easy to carry, with a ribbon bookmark and pages for notes. The Art of Film Projection invites readers to help save the authentic experience of seeing motion pictures on film.

Review
Doggedly holding the archival line from inside the projection booth is a refrain heard through all 10 ensuing chapters, which lucidly explicate the process of showing movies on film as both a technical challenge and a sacred responsibility. (Bruce Bennet Film Comment)
For more than 100 years, people saw movies on film; now they mostly see digital projection. Enter “The Art of Film Projection,” part manual, part manifesto from the George Eastman Museum in Rochester, to preserve knowledge of the craft. (Ben Kenigsberg New York Times: 2019 Holiday Gift Guide)
Unique and comprehensively informative... (Midwest Book Review)
