Anthony can be seen in full guerrilla action as Associate Producer, Gaffer, and 2nd Unit DP in the feature documentary, Paper Chasers, which chronicles the hip-hop music industry and the down and dirty making of a low-budget guerrilla doc. Through the years Anthony has organized numerous student film festivals and trained hundreds of aspiring guerrilla filmmakers for major institutions, including New York University, New York City's famed LaGuard
"good info for new shooters" according to David J. Patterson. This is a good book for people getting into video. Anthony presents solid information in a clear style that's easy to grasp and applicable to many situations. Many references to video gear are dated, the bulk of the information is still valid, and make this book worth reading. Note that the book covers a lot of ground, and is more of an "introduction" to different aspects of video production. That said, Anthony does a good job of walking you through common situations that you will likely encounter. If you choose to specialize in a specific area (audio, lighting, directing, etc.), you will want to look further f. Susanne C said you will glean a diverse range of stylistic and technical insights from this book. What a delight!

John Techwriter said Real-world content, enjoyable read. If you're a no-nothing with a new cam and want to avoid foisting MEGO-inducing home movies of your ballerina grand-daughter on your neighbors, this book contains the advice you need. Today's cams have built-in technology to compensate for our lack of technical knowledge about which lens to use, what level of white point to specify, and so on. But the best cam can't salvage a boring video. This book informs you about what people want to see, and what they want to avoid. Your best friend can't impart such advice without hurting your feelings. All the more reason to invest in the counsel of a straight-talking, kno
"It's hard not to get taken in and amped up by the book's relentlessly can-do spirit, even though a lot of the advice is really basic. Artis is probably the best book we have ever read when it comes down to real world nuts and bolts about how to plan, shoot and produce a video. I love the book's indexing and non-glare pages that make it a snap to read or scan for an important Do or Don't when putting a video together.
