I went to the library a couple of weeks ago to begin the knowledge collection and I thought I would share some potential good reads for y'all. (not while I have them though *evil laugh*). Also after getting the reading lists I saw that some of these aren't on there so more reason to share.
Firstly, "Literature and Film" edited by Robert Stam and Alessandra Raengo. This is about the theory and practice of film adaption and is very hard to read. However, I shall keep trying as I haven't come across the 'practice' part yet.
"Adaptations" edited by Deborah Cartmell and Imelda Whelehan is a much easier read and I understand it! So I recommend this one. I finished a whole chapter!
I juuust opened this one which spurred me to write this blog.
"Live TV- An Inside look at Directing and Producing" Tony Verna. This book is a bit dated *cough* 1987 *cough*.... But... It contains interviews with what was then the top live tv producers and directors so I think it will be interesting. I have found in the past that interviews are always the most informative sources. My A Level coursework benefited a great deal from Jackson Pollock/ Art historian interviews.
So we shall see! I intend on going to the library tomorrow to check out some of those journals. Something I didn't even consider last term!
