Editorial Review
Steve Wolf has been shot, set on fire, tossed from buildings; he’s even fallen from mountains. During 20 years of stunt and special effects coordinating, Wolf has worked on movies that include Tom Cruise's The Firm, Tom Hanks' Cast Away, and Paramount’s Hustle and Flow. He's engineered effects for America's Most Wanted, Law and Order, David Letterman, and Whitney Houston, and holds world records for zip lines and explosions. Much of his work looks dangerous, but in his fun and educational book Wolf reveals how everything’s done safely using simple school science. You'll understand the physical science that goes into movie work, and appreciate how learning science can open doors to exciting careers.

Hmmm

This is a good book for children (possibly...) But if you are a film maker, you definitely don't want to use it.
Just because you have to put a star to rate

This book is more for novice or even kids, but for someone that is interested in to do some indie film making this book is just a waste of time and money, it does not give you any inside in to how to do special effects or anything like that, is only a bathroom reading and for the price is not worth it
Get this book, now!
