But is truth or reality readily available, easily acquired, or undisputed? Or do documentaries convey illusions of reality? What aesthetic means are used to build these illusions?
Crafting truth illuminates the way these films tell their stories; how they use the camera, editing, sound, and performance; what rhetorical devices they employ; and what the theoretical, practical, and ethical implications of those choices are. Complex documentary concepts are presented through easily accessible language, images, and a discussion of a wide range of films and videos to encourage new ways of thinking about and seeing nonfiction cinema.

Video cassette revolution : The VCR in Australia / Michael Nugent Sydney, N.S.W.: Macquarie University, 2014.
Call No: 410.82 NUGAuthor: Nugent, Michael CorpAuthor: Macquarie UniversitySource: ATPlace: Sydney, N.S.W.Publisher: Macquarie UniversityPubDate: 2014PhysDes: 59 pages ; 30 cmSubject: VIDEO RECORDERS ; VIDEO, FILMS ON. AUSTRALIA ; VIEWERS. AUSTRALIA ; HOME EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; HOME EQUIPMENT ; HOME VIDEO. AUSTRALIA Summary: "This thesis is to serve as a history of the Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) in Australia. It has been done because while there are numerous histories relating to other aspects of Australian media, the history of the VCR itself remains little more than an aspect of narratives focused on other phenomena. This was done through extensive examination of discursive sources, such as popular magazines, newspapers and trade journals. By reading these publications over the course of several years, I have been able to identify several trends unfolding over time, noting how popular conceptions of the technology have changed. By comparing these with work done on the history of home video in other countries, it allows for a greater understanding of what is unique to Australia’s history with the VCR. Perhaps the most significant finding is that the idea of what a VCR can offer is perpetually changing. What began as a simple means to record and playback programmes from television broadcasts quickly became a key part of commercial film distribution fundamentally altered the way in which people experience their television sets. As such, a struggle for position by producers, distributors and consumers erupted, as it irrevocably changed media in Australia."
