Nuts and bolts survey of the world of non-linear editing

Filmaking is at a unique point in time where the previously independant and separate realms of images are merging into a forced compatibility. Video, film and computer graphics are struggling to coexist and fit into some sort of standard. It can be very confusing and challenging to apply all this fresh emerging and changing technology into flowing art to deliver an esthetic message. This book brought me out of darkness and into the world of nonlinear editing. It is a perfect survey course for anyone having the need define clearly the technology available to the filmaker.
