His book shows how directing, cinematography, and editing work together to present the narrative visually. His insights about visual storytelling are like a creative force multiplier and will help aspiring filmmakers achieve their very best." Stephen D Surjik, television and film director whose many credits include The Witcher, Umbrella Academy, Lost in Space, See, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage "Mind-blowing visual effects, dangerous stunts, and exhilarating action used to be the sole domain of big-budget film. But with `peak TV came the same expectations for the small screen'. With less time and less money, the only way for directors and producers to deliver is to storyboard like a pro. The author's easy-to-follow techniques on how to break the most complex scenes into essential shots has been my secret weapon for cinematic television."
