An Introduction brings together technical information with cultural and historical insight to give readers a complete and multifacetted introduction to the study of film. Copiously illustrated, with a special section of easy-to-find, high-quality colour plates, the book is supported throughout with examples that span the entire global history of the medium and a range of in-text study aids to make learning easier and fun. New to this edition are three new chapters, resource boxes, updated coverage of new technologies and a range of new film examples.
