The actor and the camera
Lawson, Denis2014
Book
Drawing on his lifetime career in front of the camera, Denis Lawson has written a wonderfully accessible introduction to the worlds of film and TV. Directly addressing the young actor fresh from drama school, he offers a guided tour of the film or TV set from day one. We meet the various members of the crew from the director of photography down to the clapper loader, as each of their functions is explained and illustrated. Then comes the actual business of shooting the scenes, beginning with read throughs and rehearsals (if there are any), on to hitting your mark and getting your eye line right, finishing with the actor's involvement in post-production.
