Product Description
Watch out, Final Cut Pro. For the first time in five years, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe's flagship digital video editing application, is once again available for both Macintosh and Windows users. This project-based book covers not just the basics of working with audio, creating transitions, and producing titles, but also all that's new in Premiere Pro: the ability to build Blu-ray Disc, DVD, and Flash projects with Adobe Encore CS3 (now included with Premiere Pro CS3); Adobe OnLocation CS3, which lets on-the-road users record footage directly to their computer disk--removing the need to capture video to tape later. Readers will enjoy learning to create slow-motion effects with Time Remapping, and will get up to speed on Premiere's new editing tools. What's more, users can compress their finished video for delivery to the latest handheld devices, such as mobile phones, iPods, PSPs, smartphones, and more. Best of all, the book's accompanying DVD includes real footage that you can practice on.

Great Book for Beginners with Crystal Clear Concepts Building April 23, 2008
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book is an excellent source of learning Adobe Premier Pro CS3. I'm new to Premier Pro CS3 (and new to movie editing software) and I find this book great for beginners who want to get a solid understanding of how the software works.
The book is structured in a manner for easy understanding of the working mechanism of movie editing. Fundamentals are covered well at the beginning, except for a chapter about "Adobe On Location" which I think should be put near the end rather than the beginning of the book. More advanced topics such as changing time, compositing techniques lead readers to a lot of potential technique-based creativities, and fit in the right place of the book.
Ideas on cutting videos, handling transitions are presented very clearly. The audio editing and mixing chapters are very nice, showing some of the cutting techniques used by professionals. Two chapters that I find particularly impressive are "Using Photoshop and After Effects to Enhance Your Video Projects" and "Authoring DVDs with Adobe Premier Pro CS3 and Encore CS3", as they really show just-right level of details for the integration of Premier Pro to other Photoshop, After Effects and Encore. Before I read these chapters I've never thought integration with these Adobe software are that easy, and more importantly, powerful.
There are, however, quite a number of minor problems in this book. First, there are quite some typos in a few chapters related to the exercises. These typos make readers difficult to follow the exercises. Second, as I mentioned before the chapter on "Adobe On Location" should not be placed near the beginning of the book. Otherwise, I would have given this book a 5-star.

Great Encore Chapter DVD missing files necessary for exercises March 20, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Great chapter on Encore. Since Adobe combined Encore with Premiere Pro there are not many Encore CS3 books.
However, while working through Lesson 4-2 from the DVD, the Photoshop layered images needed to complete the exercises were missing from their folder.

This book arrived on time. Brand new, colorful illustration. Has DVD as it suppose to. From Adobe press, Fair price, Excellent. there are some on the website offer this kind of book for very little amount of money but be aware they are just a digital copy mostly stolen from database. There you will not get a printed book and dvd(They advertise as a hard copy with big banner but somewhere they will have fine print that says digital.
