Description


Take a trip through the history of filmmaking in this illustrated widescreen exploration of the people, technologies, and techniques that have shaped the course of cinema.

Going back as far as prehistoric times, when cavemen played with light and shadow, to present day when we can stream Netflix into our living rooms, An Illustrated History of Filmmaking gets down to the nitty-gritty on everything film!

This illustrated guide shows filmmaking in action, chock full of factual information about actors and directors to the equipment and technology used throughout the ages. Featuring appearances from Hollywood heavyweights through time like George Lucas, Jean Luc Godard, Agnes Varda, Akira Kurosawa, and Stanley Kubrick, this book uses wonderfully detailed illustrations to illuminate film's past and to speculate on its exciting future!
