Customer Reviews

I'm an Adobe Addict

I've used micro-computers, personal computers, PCs, whatever you want to call them, since 1984. I have Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Master Collection. I use it for my video production and photography. I teach video production and photography. The books are really good for how I work.

Pulls you through accurately

While I was pretty familiar with NLE editing, the tools and effects of After Effects stumped me. Classroom in a Book lead me in and is opening up lots of doors. Well written and realistic projects. Good pace. I'm getting a lot out of it, at my own pace. And very importantly for a newbie, if it say's a screen looks like this, it does look like that and works just as described. This level of correlation between the text and real world is very important when you're trying to do something complex. Builds confidence.

very good stuff to start the work with AE

This book totally fit my expectation. I'm a beginner in this theme and the lections and the descriptions are very clear and gave me a really good background to start my work with after effects. I can recommand this book for everyone, how will start the work with this software.

The Basics

Great book for walking through the basic, prominent features of AE. The included DVD is a definite plus.

Another Great Classroom in a book!

This book is well written and fun to go through. It's a "must-have" for anyone who wants to dive into AfterEffects.
