Summary: Excellent, practical advice
Review: Directing is a learnable profession and Christopher Lukas' Directing For Film And Television aims to reveal practical guidelines for the lessons; from reading scripts to overseeing the production. Chapters cover everything from budget considerations and scouting locations to using scenes and set-up shots and shooting the film. Excellent, practical advice.

Summary: he was close but he never made it
Review: I belive the book has a very good begining, full of expecience an even funny details, such as the author's first work on the TV industr?. But at the end, the book really falls behind my expectations. The author lacks of metodological support in some of his writing. His chappter on Documentary simply [stinks].
I'll really sugest this book as a ligth reading, good for beginers, as long as you don't belive everything you read.
