Commercials Books

I've loved this book since a Business English class where it was a requirement. It makes it SO easy to find your topic. I no longer work in an office, but whenever I have personal correspondence that needs to be "perfect", I find myself still reaching for this little gem.

If you are looking for a great informative handbook to keep available at your desk in the office, I recommend How 9 Handbook. This is by far an excellent handbook to have. How 9 handbook gives you information on grammar usage, memos, reports, and business documents. The numbers listed on the front of the book, helps in finding the material you need easily. Clark & Clark hit a home run with this book. Also, if you need a little refresher course to enhance your skills, I recommend the How 9 Workbook. Try them both for yourself!! Every office worker should have one.

This book was required reading for a college course; however, had I found the book on my own I would have felt I struck gold! How 9 is the tool to keep right on your desk...allowing you to either learn or refresh skills from grammer and punctuation to proper format of an email correspondence or business letter.

W.L. Jenkins' How To Audition For TV Commercials From The Ad Agency Point Of View tells how to land TV commercials by understanding what ad agencies are really seeking. W.L. Jenkins is a former actor turned ad agency executive, so he's in a rare position to understand both sides of the table. From how commercials are created to understanding scripts and storyboards and adding elements to a presentation which will capture ad agency attention, How To Audition For TV Commercials is a necessary reference.

This was a great find. Easy and fun to read with a lot of great behind-the-scenes insights! If you're an actor who wants to make the audition process a lot less of a mystery--read this book!

I have been buying books about auditioning for commercials for several years, as well as studying the craft. I have finally found THE book that has given me the tools to turn my auditions into jobs. The style of the book is witty, and relaxed, but very professional and hits the target of what I have been striving to accomplish. I am so thankful that someone finally got real, and shared the secrets to success in this field!!!

This book was written and drawn by some of the original artists of Ed Roth's studio. It doesn't get any closer than this, great book!

My kids just loved this book. They are both aspiring artists and have done some great work since Christmas!

I bought this book for my husband, after several refferals from other hot rod friends. This book is better than described.

I haven't had time to read this book. But when the book reached to me, it was in good condition and I'm happy with the seller for his quick response.

i started using this book with my students who are learning english. they found the example letters very useful for reference when writing for their jobs. i really appreciated the excercises that are included to learn how to write right the first time. we both liked that it was a 'real book' and not one just for ESL.

Many of the illuminations in this text are also in The Golden Haggadah - refer to the latter for the art history and criticism related to the illuminations.

This volume is a traditional Haggadah in Hebrew and English with illuminations from Medieval texts in the British Library. The result is a splendid, visually appealing book. The illuminations run from vines running down the margins of the page, to elaborate Hebrew letters, folk illustrations, and icon-like depictions of Biblical scenes. Here and there a bit of commentary on the contents of the ritual is included. It is clear that the hope of the authors that the Haggadah be not only a beautiful book on your shelf but also be used as a beautiful book in the celebration of Passover.

This is a beautifully illustrated hagadah with rare images. The text is very easy to follow and the commentary is very helpful and insightful.

The Haggadah is beautiful and the text is authentic and easy to follow. It is not only an art book, it is a practical and useful haggadah for use during the seder. It brings Pesach to life and connects us to our history.

Few of us have the opportunity to view really great comtemporary art. When we visit the Met and the Louvre and other great art museums we marvel and gasp at the great masters of the last few hundred years. Comtemporary art by living artists is less understood and less available to view. When I was given a bottle of Imagery wine with a label by a famous living artist, Hung Liu, I stared at it and was moved by the art on the label. When tasting the wine, I was moved to tears of joy, at once grasping what the artist was expressing in her painting about the wine. This was a unique convergence of the arts of painting and wine making. What a marvelous esthetic experience! I set out to find more bottles of Imagery wine, each bearing a unique and special painting created for that wine. Then I found this book and learned the purpose of the wine family that has dedicated their lives and profits to the encouragment of great contemporary artists,much in the same tradition as the great art patrons like the Medici family. This collection of comtemporary art, all created for wine labels, will be a major contribution to the art world for now and centuries to come. If you love both art and wine, this is the one book to have.

The lavish and lovely IMAGERY: ART FOR WINE comes from a winemaker and Sonoma artist who back in 1985 decided to put original art on special wine releases. Their idea was to commission top artists to create the labels: two decades later their collection represents some of the top modern artists in the country. IMAGERY: ART FOR WINE gathers over a hundred of these works - the best of the Imagery collection - and pairs them with biographical sketches of each artist. Artist background, awards, exhibits and more help promote the individual while the label 'library in a book' displays full-page color photos of each watercolor and print. Small black and white photos of each artist are also included. An unprecedented work of art results in a collection to interest wine buffs and artists alike.

Bob Nugent is a both an artist and an art historian and was called upon to curate an exhibition for the San Francisco Museum of Art + Design, an exhibition which demonstrated the novel use of true art on the wine bottles and advertising of the various vineyards primarily of the Northern California locations. This book is a fine follow-up to that popular exhibition and gives the reader the opportunity to explore the manner in which this trend of incorporating fine art into the art of making fine wine occurred.

After an informative introduction by the always lucid and candid Donald Kuspit, the book is devoted to excellent reproductions of wine labels created not only by the author, Bob Nugent, but also including the art and design from such respected artists as Robert Arneson, Squeak Carnwath, Dominic DiMare, Don Farnsworth, David Gilhooly, Nancy Graves, Sol LeWitt and David Nash. Nugent describes the evolution of a proposed art idea to a finished product, allowing us to observe the permutations of the artist's concept as it makes it way onto the wine bottle. The wineries that have participated in this fascinating project include such well known names as Beringer, Groth, Stag's Leap, Chalk Hill and Forest Glen, Glen Ellen Winery, Benziger, Bonny Doon, Lingenfelder Vineyards and Frog's Leap.

Nugent writes well and with Kuspit's fine introduction has created a book of importance and certainly one that will be of interest to both Enophiles and as well as creative artists and designers. Grady Harp, July 06

I purchased this book for my Interior Design Class. There is just a lot of great information . The History of Design, architure, decortive art, mordern history; noted designers, different eras of design, dating back to the 1700's. Just a fablous texbook reference tool.

As a university Professor, I highly recommend this book. It covers all the fundamentals of Design, from historical background to all interior design mchanics. This is it!

If you are an Interior Design student or professor, you will enjoy reading this book, I highly recommend it. Mr. Pile is an authority in this subject, I have been teaching and reading his books for over 3 decades.

I give high rating, enjoy learning.

John Pile's this book and his other book on color are absolutely the best books I have ever laid my hands on. These books are what every magazine article is about; most books on interiors have about a 1/10 of what is in these two books. REcommended for serious homeowners and professionals.

Clear, well written, with astute comments about the business side of this interesting profession. This lady knows what she is talking about, having been in this area of consulting for many years. You can tell her expertise easily by reading this book! A must for all interior designers.

Great ideas for any design firm, as well as practical methods
for someone wanting to start out on their own.

An excellent guide book for newly established interior design company.

A great presentation of what I expected to be an unexciting topic. Examines the workings of the political system in a highly readable way. I was not only well-informed after I read the book, but entertained as well!

This is excellent material if you are conducting any kind of serious research on NAFTA and its negotiations' development and outcome. It provides with a huge theoretical framework, every step of the process. If your line of work is game theory, this book will really help you (or at least it worked wonders for me). This is mandatory reference material for anyone interested in studying NAFTA.

Mayer rivals Grisham. He enfolds the strategy of NAFTA like a good murder-mystery. More proof that reality is more entertaining than fiction. It's a thriller, a nail-biter. I couldn't put it down!

Here I am a PROFESSOR in a COLLEGE where students do B.SC. from LONDON university under EXTERNAL PROGRAM. One of the subjects I teach is "Elements of statistics". we prepared from this book,new sections were written in very simple way with technical examples and with graphs. My students last year got the DISTINCTION in this subject and this year I am also expecting DISTINCTION again from students. So I wanted to contact the auther and compliment the person. Finally as a teacher I would recommend strongly this book for the students of BSC. for "Elements of Statistics". this is a must read for the said subject.

This is a great book for beginners because it's very well written and has easy-to-follow examples. If you're familiar with stats and only need something for reference, you'll find that this book is comprehensive, and has a great index.
