As great as advertised. Delivered on time. Delivered in excellent condition. Very satisfied. Will order more hard to find manuals in the future. FBliven.
Shockingly good
This book, which highlights a fairly outdated version of Adobe Premiere Elements, is nevertheless extremely useful. After reading the reviews of newer versions of the Premiere Elements software, I decided to stick with 2.0 until I become much more adept at video editing. For a relatively small purchase price, this book will definitely be a huge help for me. Because it is: a) task oriented, b) easy to understand, c) contains intuitive links to other tasks, d) is well organized by section number, this book is highly consumable. I can't recommend it highly enough. Actually, as painful as this sounds, it may be worth toughing it out for a few weeks with the Adobe documentation that comes with the product, and then turbo-boosting your success with this book. Incidentally, the fact that the editors have bona fide video production chops versus tech writing skills was not lost on me!
Review In a Snap
If you have Adobe Premiere Elements 2 or 3 or version 4 this book is the answer to your questions. Even though it was written long ago it covers all the basic stuff to get you going. The price at Amazon is great too compared to a bookstore. It has saved me untold hours of frustration already. It's well laid out and relatively easy to follow.
A good book
Deals with many complex concepts in a concise manner. I'm a beginner to video editing and have found it a invaluable source of knowledge. So far I have been able to accomplish my editing goals using the book and the help system in Premiere elements.
Premiere Elements 3 users
Premiere Elements 3 users, this book is for you too! Being new to video editing, I was wary of a book that was not version specific. No need to worry, this book works well with version 3. Whether you are a beginner or advanced this book has it all. The format makes this book superior to others. The inside front cover has 'Contents at a Glance' index that directs you to the section for a specific task eliminating wasted time searching or reading unneeded info.
Just pick a task and go straight to that section. Each section has a guide on what to read before you begin and other related topics, key terms, tips, and best of all step-by-step instructions with illustrations.
After reading the dry manual, it was wonderful to have an easy to read, concise, and informative book. This book takes the frustration out of video editing and puts in the fun. The authors also have online tutorials that make a good companion to the book at [...].
