POLL – FILMMAKING BOOKS

The lists abound, but what are some of your favorite books on or related to filmmaking?
One of mine is a little treasure called Movie Speak. I discovered it years ago in the film section at Books-A-Million in Ocala. I've gleaned about a dozen or so terms from it which I use in my course, Video Production: Cinematic Excellence.
Tony Bill is an Oscar-winning producer who's culled nearly every term used on set and in the industry. There's hundreds of them, listed alphabetically in this easy-to-read pocket guide.
It not only immerses you in the parlance of production but draws back the curtain on a world unseen by most.
It's a must-have for filmmakers.
