From the Back Cover

Video Field Production and Editing concentrates on video techniques and technology appropriate for small scale single camera electronic field production (EFP) and electronic news gathering (ENG). Special emphasis is placed on portable camcorders and editing equipment. The Fifth Edition continues its concise, non-technical, and user-friendly format and updates students on new and emerging video technologies.

This easy-to-read book takes students through the video production process, from initial planning through final editing, integrating numerous real-world examples, key words, a glossary, and appendices to reinforce major topics and enhance the learning experience. Fully covers the elements and techniques of video-recording and post-production editing. The technical discussion is aimed at the general reader with little or no technical background in video or electronics. Up-to-date discussion of new field production technology includes CCD cameras, camcorders, and linear and non-linear editing. Most chapters are divided into two parts: one section deals with the technical aspects of production, the other deals with production techniques or aesthetics. Also includes in-depth discussions of production strategies and processes, as well as principles of equipment operation.
