Adobe Photoshop 5.0: Classroom in a Book (Classroom in a Book Series)

I am 14 years old and am doing the video yearbook at Maroa-Forsyth High School. It is a new idea that I brought up last year. Now we are starting up and are going to use Premiere to do the DV editing w/a Sony DCR-TRV 110 D8 Handycam. The book not only is helpful on how to use this complex program, but helps me some with my settings that I need to configure the DV in/out on the Sony VAIO laptop we use. It has great descriptions, pictures, and is for sure well written (I can understand it quite well.). The CD-ROM enclosed also contains the project files for the example productions. It is not only easy to use and learn, but fun as well. I STRONGLY reccommend it to anyone wishing to use Premiere 5.x.

I just spent a great deal of money to learn this program. If I had only had the book sooner, I could of saved almost a months rent. The book is designed to teach all users of all skill levels at a pace in which they feel comfortable. Each lesson is laid out logically in a very dynamic user freindly fashion. You are immediately impressed with the programs ability before even making it past page 23. What I liked best about this style of book was that you can learn at your own pace. You decide when its time to move forward. It takes the functions that you learn on one lesson and incorporates them into the next. Therefore enhancing and strengthning your knowledge. I am so impressed with the series that I will be purchasing the remainder of the books available for the programs I already own

Adobe Premiere Classroom in a Book is by far one of the most useful software guides I have ever purchased. The interactive style allows the user to get the "hands-on learning" needed to truly become proficient using Adobe Premiere. For anyone who uses video software to create quality videos, this is a must have for anyone who uses Premiere.

Adobe's Classroom in a Book series are the best software training books I've ever used. This one is no exception. It's very logical, clear, and well thought-out. The CD that's included is well integrated with the training provided in the book. I also have the Photoshop 5 and PageMaker 6.5 editions, and they're great too.I wish Macromedia would publish books like this for their products.
