Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Photographs and drawings (illustrator). 1st Edition.

There are hundreds of practical suggestions on such matters as the use of film clips with live scenes, the production of newsreels and commercials, and the uses of models, cycloramas, animation, etc. The author gives specific examples of successful and unsuccessful commercials, information about the costs of different types of production, and valuable advice on factors to be considered in shooting on location, good and bad scenery from the TV point of view, and many other practical aspects of programming.
