Crew Speak

Film sets, like most other industries, have a unique language of their own. As the world evolves, so does the work conversation on movie sets. How we once spoke lovingly about 35-milimeter-film making.... is almost gone. Now everything is turning to digital... and that's progressing fast. Basics are still basics, but you have to keep up with the current trends. Crew Speak does just that. A perfect blend of old jargon and slang along with the new terms. Michael G. Uva, author of the Grip Book not only walked the walk for over 33 years, he talks the talk. Now you can and will, "Speak like you have worked on a film set for years!"
