ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
First thanks go to my colleagues at the Dodge College of Film and Media Arts at Chapman University. In particular I would like to thank dean Bob Bassett and Media Arts Division chair Janell Shearer for their support and guidance of both my teaching and the writing of this book. I would also like to thank professor James Gardner for suggesting that I write this book and professor Gil Bettman for introducing me to my publishers, Ken Lee and Michael Wiese.
I’m also immensely grateful to my students, particularly those who have taken my Byte-Sized Television courses. You inspire me with your creativity, challenge me with your questions, force me to think deeply, and remind me every day that life is about learning.
Thanks also to my writing colleagues, who have generously shared so many insights about craft with me over the years, especially Bruce Watson, Bob Colleary, Neil Landau, and Deborah Brevoort.
Eternal gratitude and love to my daughters, Alexis and Rachel, for their support, encouragement, and the joy they bring to my life. And most of all, my deepest gratitude and love to my wife, Wendy, for the infinite gifts you’ve given me over the years: love, encouragement, wisdom, space, passion, compassion, joy, heart, and laughter.
