Whether you consider yourself a pro or a hobbyist, you have to admit that Apple's
iMovie 08 and iDVD 08 are amazing right out of the box. Unfortunately, the box
doesn't include much of a user's guide, so learning about these applications
is another matter. iMovie 08 & iDVD: The Missing Manual gets you
up to speed on all of the themes, motion graphics, titles, effects -- everything
that lets you turn raw digital footage into highly creative video projects.
You get crystal-clear and jargon-free explanations of all the iMovie 08 and
iDVD 08 features, including the new video library, how to view transitions,
titles, and sound in real time as you add them, and ways to publish your creations
directly to YouTube. Renowned author David Pogue -- tech columnist for the New
York Times -- uses an objective lens to scrutinize every step of process, including
how to:
- Work on multiple iMovie projects at once and drag & drop clips among
them
- Output your creation to a blog, its own web page, or as a video podcast
with iWeb
- Use "Magic iMovie" to import your video and make a movie for you
- Integrate with other iLife programs to use songs, photos, and an original
sound track
- And a whole lot more
From choosing and using a digital camcorder to burning the finished work onto
DVDs, posting it online, or creating versions for iPod and iPhone, iMovie
08 & iDVD: The Missing Manual zooms right in on the details in a concise
and understandable manner. The book also provides a firm grounding in basic
film technique so that the quality of your video won't rely entirely on magic.
