1 out of 5 stars 50 Fast Final Cut Express Techniques   February 23, 2008
 4 out of 5 found this review helpful

This book was an offer by Amazon for an additional $25.00, to accompany the new Final Cut Express 4. The book is outdated by 5 years and the CD that goes with the book is so outdated that Final Cut will not open the files. Very disappointing and a waste of $25.00.


4 out of 5 stars Great book for learning quick tricks   February 12, 2008

This book was great for showing how to do some really cool stuff with FCE. It will not teach you final cut express, but is not meant too. The book just dives in and gives you 50 tips fast like it says.

If you want to add some cheap special effects and learn how to do them by example then get this book.

I just love the techniques in Tim Meehan's book. Even though I've used FCP for about a year, I learned more than a few things from these pages. (Fire-breathing dogs, anyone?) And, I've got to say that the author's creativity (some wacky techniques in here) really added to the enjoyment of learning. I just hope the publisher will create a new edition for FCP4.
