MANUALS AND ONLINE RESOURCES


This page is primarily manuals, and online texts. This page has resources sorted by general topics. The Glossary page contains some of these same links but also has additional links for other resources, Including Computer help and Internet HTML resources.

I have provided these links, because each one has a unique point of view, specifically different subject matter, and methods of explaining their areas of videography. Each site is its own property and the content is owned by them, please review their copyright disclamers before printing and distributing any materials.

Videography is complex and the many variables you will encounter in this field can open you up to error, unless you have sufficent information to solve your problems. These sites have many solutions you may need.

I put this link at the top of the page because it is another gateway links page, ePanorama, has thousands of technical electronic links on many pages, the following page has approx 200 tech video articles/links
Video Production Technology Page, ePanaorama, this page will give you an indepth series of studys/links on the technical aspect of production technology, cameras, lens, and much much more.

Ethics in Education This paper will discuss the role of universities in inculcating a culture of ethics as a prelude to the integration of ethics into the business curriculum. In the author's opinion this requires an analysis of the following variables: the business school as a social system, power and micro-politics, culture, and leadership and cultural change. The Business School as a Social System

ORAL HISTORY TECHNIQUES AND PROCEDURES" Videotaping interviews adds a new dimension to oral history. The final video product can juxtapose an interviewee to an object or setting that is the subject of the interview, such as a battlefield, where the combination of sight and sound allows for a clearer perception of the interviewee or subject. It also facilitates the use of visual enhancements, such as photographs and maps.
