Book Description
This full-color, amply illustrated, accessible book teaches readers the essential skills necessary for creating compelling movies with iMovie and iDVD, Apple's consumer-friendly digital movie and DVD-burning software applications. Readers can follow the step-by-step instructions from the beginning to get a tour of the applications or look up specific tasks to learn just what they need to know. Longtime Macintosh and technology writer Jeff Carlson takes extra steps to ensure that readers understand all of the key aspects of digital movie making. He begins by introducing readers to essential preproduction skills: selecting a camera, choosing the right kind of light source for your needs, creating a storyboard to plan your shots, understanding how timecode works, and more. From there, the rest of the book explains the basics of importing, editing, and exporting your video to the Web or DVD. Along the way, this comprehensive reference covers everything from choosing iMovie themes, adding transition and audio effects, creating video podcasts and blogs, and much more. New features in iMovie '08 and iDVD '08 include a brand-new interface that lets users create a movie intuitively and quickly; expanded format support; an easy-to-browse library that automatically organizes your video clips; and the ability to publish your movie to the Web on your .Mac homepage or directly to YouTube. Or, send your movie to iTunes so you can watch it on an iPhone, Apple TV, or iPod.
