Description
John Alton's Painting With Light remains one of the most influential statements on motion picture photography. First published in 1949, this book provides an unrivalled historical document on postwar American cinema.
In simple language, Alton explains the job of the cinematographer and explores how lighting, camera techniques, and location choices determine a film's visual mood. This edition includes Todd McCarthy's introduction to Alton's biography and career, as well as a foreword by award-winning cinematographer John Bailey.
