Working with Actors: A Guide for Directors

Since 1996, Judith Weston's book "Working with Actors: A Guide for Directors" has been a timeless classic for filmmakers around the world. It has become an industry standard that has shaped the working style of many cinematographers. Among Weston's students are stars like Taika Waititi, Alejandro González Iñárritu, and many other contemporary directors. The anniversary 25th edition includes materials that expand and clarify the key ideas of the book. The author has supplemented each chapter and added two new ones — "How a Director Should Work with Children" and "Comedy."
