[Steven Gonzales] “And just to take it out there a bit, how about Kino-eye: The Writings of Dziga Vertov, or Film Technique by V.I. Pudovkin, Grammar of the Film Language by Daniel Arijon.”
I’d include the godfather of editing, Sergei Eisenstein’s writings. I’ve found books about literary structure are very helpfull. Also “The Art of the Documentary” has some really good stuff in it.
