Not necessarily lighting, but worth knowing about for blocking a scene

I have the above mentioned Barry Green dvd; and it is a pretty good starter. What I like about it is that it includes 2 short movies (one is low budget, one higher budget) and they breakdown the main lighting scenes in the movies - so it provides some practical techniques as well as all the usual theory.

You can also get the Kodak Master Series:
Kodak Master Class Series: Studio Lighting: A Comparative Workshop*::*Cinematography*::*Instructional Videos*::*Books & Videos*::*The ASC Store (http://www.ascmag.com/store/product.php?productid=8570)

I got this book which also came with a DVD: Motion Picture and Video Lighting: Amazon.co.uk: Blain Brown: Books

thanks guys will take a peek. Any good tips where to get cheapo flags etc from??

just re-read this, still looking at dvds. I want try out Barry Green's DVD...

what are the reviews?

And as a bonus, when you've finished watching the DVDs you can use the shiny side as a cheap reflector.

(boom! boom!)
