Shoot Tools — Sound for Digital Video

Includes a CD with recording and editing exercises. Price: $39.95

Although it seems pretty easy to use a mic on location, a distinguishing feature of too many projects is poor sound quality. That can be remedied with better planning and a clear concept of how audio works throughout the whole production. A book on the topic by an authority like Tomlinson Holman is news. The award-winning sound engineer (Indiana Jones, Star Wars) and developer of the THX sound system used in theaters and homes around the world has released Sound for Digital Video (Focal Press), bringing his years of expertise to low-budget digital video productions, with tips and solutions on audio in production, editing, and mixing.
