5.0 out of 5 stars You need this book!, 22 Jan 2009
By Oliver Denne "Oliver Denne" (Lostwithiel, Cornwall) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you are new to Final Cut then this is the book to get. Very clearly written, it's pretty much a must-have. It neither treats you like a complete computer newbie nor presumes a PHD in computer science, it is obviously aimed at the enthusiast and will get you from whatever level you are at to being a competent user through a number of very clearly set out tutorials, within a matter of only a few weeks. It is obviously written by someone who has a massive knowledge of the application, but who teaches the important bits of that knowledge in a clear, concise and factual way. I cannot recommend this book enough, anything else is a compromise!

excellent book for newcomers to the software, a great way to brush up on the hotkeys and learn new workflows for those who are already pretty good at it. I recommend this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Learning Final Cut Express 4, 11 Aug 2009
By Mr. R. J. Hesketh "Robcol" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Although quite good at movie editing programmes, I still like to have a book to fall back on when learning a new product and this book does it well. I think you need some sort of knowledge of video editing though but the exercises are very good
