- Summary:
- The first comprehensive examination of the cinematographer's art, Making Pictures presents incisive analyses of 100 visually stunning films -- radical classics like Battleship Potemkin (1925), Jules et Jim (1965), and The Elephant Man (1980) -- along with a complete technical and creative history of the cameraperson's unique craft. Illustrated with 500 images in both color and black-and-white, it features a wealth of location shots and expository stills. Contributions by such seminal figures as director Bernardo Bertolucci, actor Marcello Mastroianni, and Ingmar Bergman's long-term collaborator, cinematographer Sven Nykvist, make this a unique study.
- This remarkable book examines 100 European films that represent the art of cinematography at its best; they were specially chosen by a panel of cinematographers to represent either technical or creative mastery by the cameraman. This book will be an essential reference for all film students and cinematographers.
