Jeff Ravitz & James L. Moody’s Lighting for Televised Live Events Book Debuts

A new book about the techniques and unique issues of lighting design for live events and productions being shot for broadcast, webcast or IMAG, has been published by Routledge and their media technology division, Focal Press.
