Good Lighting books
Just read Kris Malkewitz’s Film Lighting book and loved it.
Can anyone suggest good companion books for lighting that would be a good next step?
Are there good magazines about lighting?Thanks,
Dan S.

Motion Picture and Video Lighting, Second Edition, by Blain Brown — lots of typos, and sometimes dense writing, but a thorough book. The textbook I assign to grad students studying lighting at the Academy.
Lighting for Digital Video & Television, Second Edition, by John Jackman — I have not read this book but currently evaluating it for an on-line lighting class; looks promising.
Lighting for Television & Film, Third Editiion, by Gerald Millerson. Encuyclopedic. British. Somewhat out of date but full of timeless information.
Matters of Light & Depth, by Ross Lowell
