How to Do Everything with iMovie

So many books focus on just the software and not the art and skill of getting the best raw footage to work with. Too many people, beginners and experienced, make the mistake in thinking that software is where it all begins and can magically turn badly conceived and executed material into great work. You get all the right information in this book about how to create the best results possible from the beginning of the process, and continues logically, step by step, through the iMovie software. Wouldn't you prefer learning about making good videos from authors who are experts in filmmaking and software and not just the software? This is the book to buy.

... iMovie is a very easy-to-use program, but the most important part of making a good movie is the raw footage, and "How to do Everything with iMovie" shows you how to handle everything from camcorder selection to the subtleties of proper lighting. It makes it unique among the iMovie books I've read, which focus strictly on software and not on the most important subjects of all. ... I highly recommend this book. You will learn how to make great videos, even with a cheap camcorder.
