Review: Great Book on Editing "Tactics" - I LOVED this book, moreso than any other editing book that I've come across. Unlike most editing books that drag on and on about editorial style and historical tools, this book really provides hands-on knowledge for the budding filmmaker. I would highly recommend this to anyone getting started with YouTube style videos, Short-Films, or simply looking for countless intermediate level skills. What a wonderful way to actually understand why we use specific transitions and cuts, when we should use them, and how best to implement them. This will be my editing bible going forward and I'm very thankful to have it for reference. Buy it for the sheer contrast that it will give you to any other editing "novel" that you're likely to come across. Well worth the five-star review!
Review: Excellent book for novice film maker - Each page has a short, descriptive editing ( or shooting) concept explained directly and clearly with memorable examples, history, philosophy or comment which helped me process the content in a more memorable way. This book is invaluable to me, a novice documentarian film maker. People spend tons of money and tons of hours to get the info that can be gleaned from this book with in few hours to read front to back and then keep for reference. So happy I bought this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent, if a little dated, rules and guidelines
*by S***T on January 14, 2024*

I'm not new to the editing process, but am a beginner when it comes to video. Most on-line guides focus on the technical aspects of editing, but not how to choose what to keep and what to delete. This books does that quite well, with page after page of clear-cut rules, examples, and advice. It's clear that I'll be re-reading this as I gain experience, and I'm certain it will hit different every time I do. One qualm, though, is that the book feels very dated. The copyright date says 2015, but the grainy black and white pictures say 1974. (One photo features President Ford, for heaven's sake!). That's not a huge deal, as much of the content is fairly timeless. Still, the focus is on feature films, while a 2020's reader will be looking to create shorter works for an on-line audience. For us, "post production can't address poor lighting or add special effects" isn't very helpful.
