This is a great book

Now that Motion has 3D and doesn't crash, I thought, what the heck, I'll learn it. This book is great. Motion is a much deeper graphics app than I ever gave it credit for. I used to look at it as a big plug-in with some nifty effects. This book changed that thinking. It got me to stop tinkering with the program and really use it in production. I tend to loath step by step tutorials, but this book uses them well and does not forget to teach a broad understanding of the topics. So, no, it's not at all like following a recipe, it definitely teaches, reinforces (they do a great job repeating short cut keys) and leaves me feeling like a super power user wizard. Chapters are concise, projects are real world (sorry no flying saucer tutorials in this one) and its one of the few training books that I actually read cover to cover. Kudos and thanks to the writers!

Apple has a true competitor in the compositing market with Motion 3.0

Apple Motion 3.0 is a true 3-D compositing masterpiece. It may not overtake Adobe After Effects CS3 Professional [Mac] or Apple Shake 4.1 Visual Effects (Mac) yet, but with a refined yet straightforward interface it is possible to do amazing things. But how can you learn to use it? Enter Apple Pro Training Series: Motion 3.0. This book starts from scratch, yet by the end (if you really study) your ready to take the Apple Certified User test for Motion. This looks great on a resumé. Seriously, you can really learn to do compositing with this training book. If you are creative enough you can do most everything that After Effects can do, and once you get really good, pick up After Effects or Shake and really go crazy. If you have ever read an Apple Pro Training book, you know that each chapter is a complete lesson. Just put a bookmark in it and come back when you get off work. Even if you get lost, most lessons have updated project file available mid-way through to pick up where you left off. If you own Motion, or want to learn compositing you are required to get this book. Just go ahead and buy it, you will not be disappointed.

An excellent guide for Apple Motion 3!

This book has some really practical examples and tutorials. It's written in a direct way which makes it easier to follow and understand all the steps since English is not my first language and is really pleasing to read through this manual, and be able to easily accomplish the goals. Really helpful, regardless of your previous experience with the program, and worth recommending.

The best way to learn Motion 3!

When I picked up Final Cut Studio 2 I have to say I really wanted it for Final Cut Pro. That is until I saw the power Motion 3 has! Being a longtime After Effects user I was hesitant to get into Motion 3. I'm glad I did. Motion 3 is extremely powerful. When I looked for the best training option I chose Apple Pro Training Series: Motion 3 by Damian Allen, Mark Spencer, Bryce Button. I have been an avid fan of Mark Spencer's since I first saw him on MacBreak. I plan on getting Apple Certified in Motion and this book will take me there. It's well written, has real world examples in the lessons, and hits every aspect you need to know to be proficient in Motion 3.
