Since journalism was my major at the University, I have always found myself a step behind in the TV world. That's why I found the recommendation of this book a bit useful, and the content itself was really good, however I found it logical as I gained some experience from working in the field over the past few years. Even after finishing this useful book, I still don't like much the technical aspects of motion picture projects.
