A selection of Books by BSC members...
Outstanding Stills handily compiled in
alphabetical order - from Remi Adefarasin BSC to
Freddie Young BSC - finally puts faces to several
generations of outstanding British
cinematographic talent at work in studios and on
exotic locations around the world across more
than 70 years of film-making.
David Watkin sadly died soon after the
publication of this, his second book. The book
with great humour, charts his early life in
Margate, during which he developed an intense
love of music and literature and continues
through the war to his career as an Oscar winning
cinematographer and film pioneer in the British
film industry.
Alexs love of the Camera Department is well
illustrated here in this hilarious collection of
tales from the studio floor.A delightful
publication complemented with a wealth of stills.
