Description

The Television Handbook provides a critical introduction to both the theory and practice of the television industry. Patricia Holland considers the history and structure of British television at a time of rapid change and explores the implications of the cable, satellite and digital revolution. The Television Handbook offers practical advice on many aspects of programme making from commissioning through to the post production process. It discusses important genres and concepts such as narrative, documentary and news and analyses the 'ordinary television' of sport and daytime programming. Specialist chapters from James Curran, Tony Dowmunt and Robin Small consider Newsnight and television journalism, minority programming and production management. The Television Handbook bridges the gap between theory and practice and brings together a wide range of information on all aspects of television. It includes interviews with major television figures such as Stuart Cosgrove, Phil Redmond, Beryl Richards and Alan Hayling.
