Cinematic Storytelling: The 100 Most Powerful Film Conventions Every Filmmaker Must Know Review
Considering the potentially complex nature of telling stories through pictures, I thought this book delivered wonderfully on the promise of its title. Cinematic storytelling provides a really solid foundation with regard to understanding some of the most commonly used conventions in filmmaking. I particularly enjoyed the presentation of the imagery used to illustrate the correlation between the technical aspects of framing shots and the resulting emotional impact they can achieve. Really just a great lesson in the visual artistry inherent to the craft. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone wanting to further hone their filmmaking skills.

A Great Resource For Film Students - J. Hirschberg - Rochester, NY United States
After reading CINEMATIC STORYTELLING, my colleague and I decided to order it for an intermediate filmmaking class for Buffalo State College's Television and Film Arts program. Our program is all about developing great storytellers. To that end, we were looking for a book that could help our students bring their scripts to life. The examples given in this book beautifully illustrate the thought processes of some of our greatest filmmakers and are a wonderful tool to help budding filmmakers storyboard their scripts and make impactful films.
