Recenzje

"Brown does a skillful job of keeping the beginner in mind while diving into some of the more difficult technical considerations of High Def video, using real-life examples of professionals and their workflows.” -Morgan Paar, Videomaker Magazine

"...a vital resource for filmmakers embarking on their first HD project, as Browne goes beyond discussions of technical minutiae to offer a great deal of practical advice, including tips on time management and set politics... Several detailed case studies of HD productions are also included, which illustrate the author's concepts via practical examples... The comprehensiveness of Browne's approach insures that his book will stay relevant even as the quickly changing technology of high-def makes some of the details obsolete, as core principles will most likely remain intact no matter how rapidly the medium evolves. In any case, High Definition Postproduction is an excellent summing up of the choices available to high-def practitioners at this moment in time and would make a worthwhile addition to any filmmaker's library."
- review by Jim Hemphill, American Cinematographers Magazine
