Does anyone have any recommendation on books that I can read for advanced editing? Specifically, I'm looking into learning about why I would need to "pull down" video, change the frame rates, worry about interlaced versus progressive, etc. I'm looking into the technical side of film and video. I can do amazing things with post production and VFX, but I'd like to get into the more advanced stuff that I read here on the forums. I've looked at Amazon and Creative Cow, but it's hard to determine if they have the info I'm looking for. Like, if someone gives me an AVI, what formats would be best to export it to and questions like that. Right now, I simply use amatuer video or MPEG 2, but eventually, I know a customer will get with me with a DVCPRO, DVCAM, or some other high end format and I need to know what and why I need to set my NLE settings to. Minus the special equipment I know I'll need, I just want to learn more about the different settings. I know this forum will come through for me like it has with everything else, so thanks in advance.
