Final Cut Pro 2 for Macintosh: Visual QuickPro Guide
Editorial Reviews Amazon.com The strength of Final Cut Pro, Apple's topnotch digital-video editing application, lies in its ease of use. It makes sense, then, that one of the best books on Final Cut is also one of the easiest to read and use. Over 600 pages of step-by-step instruction, the Final Cut Pro 2 for Macintosh: Visual QuickPro Guide can build the skill set of almost any user looking to edit with Final Cut Pro.

Beginning with an overview of system requirements and configurations, Brenneis plunges into the Final Cut interface and the first steps in setting up and using the application.
The chapters are structured as if a real project were in production: importing video, preparing the clips, editing, adding transitions, and rendering for final output. Tips and tricks are sprinkled like gold nuggets throughout the book, offering insight on how an experienced professional might take advantage of a particular feature.
