Customer Reviews

Clear, contemporary, cuts the crap - great textbook
We used this book as textbook for a European course in Multimedia Production: it is clear, up to date and doesn't containt he usual geeky jargon. Written by people who know about production, and how to pass on that knowledge to others. Good practical exercises too.
