Product Description
So you've got a copy of iMovie HD and iDVD 5, a camcorder, and plenty of footage?but how do you get all this video footage into a watchable movie? Maybe you don't want to spend a lot of time learning all the ins and outs of the software, but just want to get your movie finished. Realizing that many users won't want to waste a single minute reading about all they can do with iMovie and iDVD, best-selling author Jeff Carlson cuts straight to the chase, using simple project-based instruction and big, colorful screen shots to guide them through the process of making their first movie on an interactive DVD. By focusing on that first project, rather than exploring every option and feature, Jeff demonstrates the quickest, easiest, smartest route to cinematic success. Each short lesson builds on the last as users learn how to shoot, edit, and produce their own movies and then distribute them on DVDs to share with friends, family, and colleagues.

too little August 15, 2005 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Geez. The book contains too little info and immediately tells you to buy other books in the series.
Careful, this is not a Quick Start guide June 2, 2005 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
The book you probably want is: iMovie HD and iDVD 5 for Mac OS X : Visual QuickStart Guide. This is the Quick Project guide. The total content of this book would fit on 3 pieces of paper. So why did I give it four stars? It's beautiful, not very expensive, and it does provide the key information you need to actually produce a decent DVD.
It's simply that it's rather sparse. I ordered it by mistake; I thought I was getting the Visual QuickStart guide. I didn't bother returning it because:
1. it's not a bad book, I'll give it to a friend 2. it's not worth the hassle to return.
All the same, be sure you don't really want the QuickStart guide instead -- that series has much more material in it.
