Book Reviews of iMovie 2 Solutions: Tips, Tricks, and Special Effects
Book Review: Don't expect an iMovie how to
Summary: 4 Stars
As always, begin at the beginning. If you're looking for an iMovie manual, there are plenty of other authors to choose from. That is NOT what this book is about. Ms Sadun has written a book that borders on heresy. How to take a free program and make a movie that does the types of things only previously available for programs costing hundreds (and thousands) of dollars. What do you need? QuickTime Pro (30 bucks), and Adobe Photoshop Elements (Less than 80 bucks if you shop carefully). Almost any effect you can think of is covered by this book. It really is that good. Granted, doing the same thing with higher end (and much more expensive) video editing software is less complicated and probably takes less time, but the point of the exercize is not always the destination, but the journey (How Zen!). Let's face it, if you're a video professional, you already have the latest from Avid, or Apple, or something like that. If you're editing your son's birthday or a friends wedding, this book is a must have!
