Edit Well

ebook

This is the eBook version of the printed book. If the print book includes a CD-ROM, this content is not included within the eBook version.

Most film editors, whether they are working on motion pictures, broadcasts, live events, or video projects, all recognize that there is a process to editing. It involves planning, editing your story, adding transitions and effects, sweetening the audio, correcting the color, and creating the output. Apple has made it even easier to perform these tasks by combining their flagship nonlinear editor, Final Cut Pro, with other tools into a complete post-production package called Final Cut Studio.

Edit Well: Final Cut Studio Techniques from the Pros is the book that in-the-trenches editors have been waiting for. It offers a holistic approach to using the tools in Final Cut Studio for those who are responsible for a variety of tasks beyond just straight editing. Written by the preeminent experts and practicing professionals in their fields, contributors include Kevin Monahan, Mary Plummer, Mark Spencer, Tom Wolsky, and Alexis Van Hurkman, to name a few. Each chapter features each pro's own insight on a particular tool in the Studio, whether it be Final Cut Pro, Soundtrack Pro, Motion and its 3D capabilities, or Color, a ground-breaking addition to the Studio for professional color grading.

Inside the book you'll find:
  • Practical, step-by-step techniques that cover the complete digital video workflow: editing, effects, motion, audio, color correction, and DVD authoring.
  • Hard-to-find techniques on using Color and the 3D capabilities found in Motion.
  • Expert insight and commentary by top professionals and trainers.
  • Best-practice methods in editing, with tips on when and how to use a particular tool in real-life scenarios.
  • Keyboard shortcuts to help you simplify your workflow.
  • References to video tutorials and audio interviews of top Final Cut Pro editors around the world, available for free on the companion Web site.
