Audio Post Production: For Film and Television

Very good book on fundamentals of audio post-production.

This is a very informative book with lots of practical information on the processes of working in post production. I would recommend that anyone wanting to understand how the film and television industry works, read this book. I will make good use of the information in this book for my continued understanding of working in film and post production...

GREAT BOOK. I had to read it for my audio production class. I am glad I read it. I learned a lot.

If you are just getting in to Audio Post Production. or your curiousity is just beginning to blossom, then this book will catch you up to speed on Audio Post Production for Film and Tv.. The author, Mark Cross, has lots of real world experience and details the fundamentals of the professional very clearly and in an easy to follow way.Anyone with any experience beyond beginner audio post production, will probably not get alot of use from the book. I only chose 3 stars because the book seemed to me a lesson in "an introduction to audio post production", as opposed to "How to be an audio post production engineer". If you start with knowing nothing, this book will get your feet wet and prepare you to seek more advanced information. Honestly, I think reading the post production forums on Gearslutz website would be more applicable and cover more information which was not included in this book. Like surround mixing, room set ups, speaker calibration, in depth deliverables etc.

Great audiobook if you wanna know about audio in film

Si te dedicas al audio para cine o eres estudiante, este libro resuelve muchas dudas.

This book is incredible, the amount of projects its helped me with is unreal not even exaggerating. It's excellent read and very easy to understand, thank you Mark Cross

Mark Cross does an admirable job in getting the fundamentals of audio post-production documented for people starting out in the craft.It is used by many colleges as a teaching text, however, the book is exactly that, a very good starting point.There are a few paragraphs in the book and a chapter on templates that is worth looking at, although most of the book is now outdated and but not completely obsolete. It gives you a heads up on basics, hardware and documentation, and tools used in the industry. The workflows detail steps that are taken to get the audio to levels acceptable in the profession.If you can grab this for under a tenner, then it's ok, otherwise, there are better books out there that are current, but then you will be paying hefty current prices. Its a good read and well organised book that does what it intended to do.
