Eyewitness: Film

Full-color photos. Here's a behind-the-scenes look at the history and technology of movies—how sets are built, how stunts are performed, how cartoons and special effects are created, and how films are edited and publicized before release. The "multiple visuals are eye-catching, impressive, and accurate."—School Library Journal.

Children's Literature

The well-known "Eyewitness" series provides nonfiction volumes centered on one subject. Each is spectacular in both photography and authentic, accurate information. Film, one of the titles, is recommended for ages ten and up, but a younger reader will certainly enjoy the photographs and can glean some information. Other titles in the series include Costume, Boat, and Horse.
