Reviews
Stephen Prince's Digital Cinema is essential reading for anyone interested in the implications of the digital revolution for storytelling in the moving image media. This book--at once sophisticated and accessible--is by far the best introduction to the topic., The book's greatest strength is its ability to distil a significant amount of existing scholarship on digital cinema to jargon free and accessible language. Prince illuminates his points through numerous examples, ranging from film sequences, filmmaking software, techniques and technology, to media in general., This illuminating, lucid, and deeply informative book should be essential reading for anyone who has ever wondered about the present, past, and future of cinema in the digital age.

Synopsis
Stephen Prince offers a clear, concise account of how digital cinema both extends longstanding traditions of filmmaking and challenges fundamental assumptions about film. In the process, he raises provocative questions about the emergence of virtual reality, the future of film preservation, and the status of realism in digital cinema., Digital Cinema considers how new technologies have revolutionized the medium, while investigating the continuities that might remain from filmmaking?s analog era. In the process, it raises provocative questions about the status of realism in a pixel-generated digital medium whose scenes often defy the laws of physics. It also considers what these changes might bode for the future of cinema. How will digital works be preserved and shared? And will the emergence of virtual reality finally consign cinema to obsolescence? Stephen Prince offers a clear, concise account of how digital cinema both extends longstanding traditions of filmmaking and challenges some fundamental assumptions about film. It is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding how movies are shot, produced, distributed, and consumed in the twenty-first century., Digital Cinema considers how new technologies have revolutionized the medium, while investigating the continuities that might remain from filmmaking's analog era.
