 Good for beginners September 21, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Hello, I just wanna say quick that this book is VERY good for Final Cut Pro
beginners, with step by step explonations, but if you already know the basic stuff, I would rather buy "beyond the basics" book, in the same series.
 Beware of the DVD September 14, 2007
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
While the book does a pretty good job of explaining how to do things in FCP, I found some of the explanations to be a little bit lengthy and tedious... too much text and not enough visual examples in some cases, although to be fair, the introductory chapters, particularly with the full-page diagrams of the user interface parts are fantastic. The BIG BIG BIG problem with this book is that sometimes the DVD does not always work and you will have a problem loading files. Not sure what the problem is with this. I have over 20 students using the book and about 2/3 of them have had some problem with it. I myself could not open one of the video clips on my MacBook Pro.
If you are forced to learn Final Cut Pro with a book: this is it! August 16, 2007

I was frustrated with the FCP tutorials who seemed written by non-English speaking nerds and badly translated, and with the irritating habit of refer you to a different page every two lines...this book is writen by somebody who can actually teach, in plain English. I found out that by following every easy step you can actually start to edit your project pretty soon, thanks to the excellent footage and good tutorials. Totally recomended for anybody who want to learn how to edit electronically and cannot attend one of these expensive courses. First rate!
 A beautiful thing August 6, 2007
This book is right to the point and helpful in explaining a program as deep as the Pacific. I was marveling at the usefulness of each paragraph. I'm a partner in a graphic design firm and really appreciated the simple layout and minimum word count on each spread. (I'm totally ADD...not a great combination with FCPI salute Diana and her approach. In simplicity there is inspiration and I found it this afternoon. I will order more of Diana's books. I can't imagine it gets too much better than this.

If you have never used Final Cut, this book will give you a big boost getting started. The included DVD with sample files lets you actually use the program in a real world situation.
