内容简介
Several case studies of feature film projects have been published, but till
now we have h.ad no equivalent basis for the understanding of documen-
tary. This is the first casebook to focus exclusively on the nonfiction film
maker: his revolutionary techniques, his particular conceptions of his work,
his unique artistic strategies, his creative and practical problems. In creat-
ing this study Alan Rosenthal has interviewed film makers whose work lies
on the active growing edge of the medium: director-producers, writers,
cameramen, editors--men and women who have in recent years pushed
back the boundaries of cinematic convention and profoundly influenced
our notions of photography, acting, and editing. Some films are covered by
interviews with several members of the creative team, whose differing per-
spectives help to shape the final work.
