I'm reading "The Five C's of Cinematography" and loving it.

On the cover there is a quote from American Cinematographer that claims "The Five C's of Cinematography is one of the three most important books on cinematic technique ever published".

Anyone know what the other two are?

For my money, Moviemaker's Master Class goes on that list.

This thread really belongs in the "Read About It" forum. And I bet you will find your answers there too...

I thought there might be a better place for it, thanks!
