Why read it?
1 author picked The Five C's of Cinematography as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A photo book that breaks down composition into a very simple workman-like manner not relying on formula. Too many times composition is taught as a formula or “rules of thirds,” which simply scratches the surface as to what composition can and should be doing for the artist. The author offers a different perspective than that of a painter but just as valid.
From Robh's list on timeless art advice.
