"The Art of Digital Video has always been the ultimate reference guide for those working with the technology. Now the industry bible is back and it's better than ever. Well-known author John Watkinson has extensively rewritten this classic work to embrace High-Definition Television and the impact of Information Technology. Reflecting the near-universal use of digital techniques, the format has also been dramatically enhanced to make the book accessible to a wider range of readers. Optional sections provide additional information that readers can skip or investigate further, according to their needs."--Jacket.
