Opis

John Gowan gives a master class in every aspect of television production from lighting to labeling tapes, from casting to editing. No detail of the journey is omitted from conception to post-production, from music to marketing. And he achieves all this with a true simplicity, a genuine lightness of touch and a complete absence of patronization. The 58 pages that begin this book could easily be made into a small booklet in their own right. They represent the best and most profound exposition of the Christian calling in mass media that I have ever encountered. I believe every Christian considering working in television would richly benefit from reading them. Gowan shows a unique understanding of the television medium, of the audience, and of the standard of excellence required to engage that audience. This is a remarkable book that can benefit anyone, no matter what level of the industry they are engaged in. It is a film school in 226 short pages. And it will change many people's understanding of what God is calling them to do forever. Bart Gavigan, screenwriter and film producer
