About this product

Product Information

The first ever introduction to this popular but uncharted artistic field. VJing is a type of performance that combines the visual possibilities of filmmaking with the improvisational ability of jazz. Until recently, the field was only open to people with expensive equipment. But now that laptops have become fast enough to handle video mixing and digital projectors have become brighter, lighter and cheaper, the day of the VJ - or Visual Performer - is here. The VJ experience has evolved from a cutting edge art form to the newest and fastest growing electronic fad. Despite its strong grassroots movement, there have been no books on the subject - until now. The VJ Book , written by a former editor at Wired magazine, combines straight how-to information with cultural context and history. Spinrad provides technical advice both for beginners and experienced VJs. It includes DVD of software and performances. It includes: the history of hip video performance, interviews with the main players, how-to advice for VJs of all levels, software and hardware suggestions, DVD of free software and visual performances, and copyright and other legal issues.
