Producing Great Sound for Film and Video: Expert Tips from Preproduction to Final Mix is a non-fiction, filmmaking handbook.

[11] When released, Millimeter Magazine noted that the book was one of very few publications extensively covering the art of capturing motion picture sound.

Tips include stealing unvoiced sounds from other characters, or people speaking in a scene, and using them to replace problematic recordings of others.

The "editing voices" section also discusses sounds with "hard attacks" and training the ear to hear phonemes, which helps in isolating and correcting speech recording issues.

Numerous "recipes" for dealing with common sound issues, such as reducing or eliminating echo on sets, and removing line hum and buzz from recorded audio, are also provided.

The current version of the book provides downloadable files including sample sounds and music, diagnostic tools and additional tutorials allowing the reader to practice with the principles explained.
