Customer Reviews

Book Helped Me A Lot

This book turned my digital camcorder into a valuable tool. I can use it for much more than I thought. I'd recommend this book to anyone who recently bought a digital camcorder. Lots of stuff in relatively few pages.

helpful book.

This book did a great job of explaining the basics and teaching me how to edit video with my new computer. I read chapter three, where the author does a good job of explaining the basics of how a camera works. And, contrary to what the previous reviewer says, he DOESN'T call it a pinhole camera at all. Not sure what that reviewer was reading. Perhaps that reviewer can cite the page on which the phrase "pinhole camera" appears. And who's Charlie White? Thanks.

Good book

This book teaches the basics of video making and editing very well. Walks you step by step through using the most common video-editing software. I found it very helpful. Previous reviewer sounds like he's grinding some unrelated axe. Somebody turn down your book proposal, tough guy?

perfect for me

Not sure what book the previous reviewers read, but I found Steward's book to be perfect for what I needed--a quick introduction to the subject of editing digital video. It got me up and running. A quick read with good results.

A great intro. to digital video

I'm afraid I don't have a clever title review, but I have read the book and I thought it was a great introduction to digital video techniques. It's got easy to follow examples and some great projects - it's even got some projects that you can do with your kids, which I thought was really fun. I'd recommend this book to people I know who are just starting out in digital video - already have, in fact, to my students.
