"After reading chapter 9 on Special Effects, I grabbed my Bell & Howell Filmo 70 camera to examine it more carefully, amazed that it held so many possibilities that I had been previously unaware of. Dodd provides indispensable shooting tips, inspiring assignment suggestions, while sharing his passion for filmmaking."
