The Filmmaker's Guide to Visual Effects is a unique and essential guide for filmmakers and producers to navigate the complex world of VFX to effectively make better films. You need to read this book if you are a filmmaker that needs a simple or complex visual effects shot; your film will be better, and it will be completed sooner and it will cost less if you understand how to work with VFX. -John McIntosh, Chairman, School of Visual Arts, Computer Art, Animation and Visual Effects - Board of Directors, Visual Effects Society (VES) | New York The Filmmaker's Guide to Visual Effects is an indispensable tool for filmmakers. Writing in a clear, concise style, the author makes the possibilities of VFX accessible to directors, producers, editors, cinematographers - anyone who wishes to know more about how to use its power to better tell their stories. -Arthur Vincie, Writer/Director of Found In Time and Three Trembling Cities, Author of Preparing For Takeoff This book should be required reading for anyone working as a director, producer, DoP and many other roles, as well as film students. Working in the industry gives a fragmented familiarity with lots of VFX in practice; this book completes the picture and gives me - as a director, producer and First Assistant - a coherent view of why we use certain methodologies and how we can then envision and plan ambitious effects while saving time and money. An extremely useful resource that I'm sure I will return to again and again. -Liz Gill, Author of Running the Show While there are many good VFX books out there aimed at the VFX artist, The Filmmaker's Guide to Visual Effects fills a niche in providing filmmakers a comprehensive overview on how to successfully implement VFX techniques in their productions. -Matthew McKenna, Senior Systems Director, School of Visual Arts
