Book Description
Sams Teach Yourself Adobe Premiere in 24 Hours offers practical advice from an author with a strong writing background, solid teaching experience, and extensive television production credentials.
Rather than simply presenting a collection of disconnected lessons, Sams Teach Yourself Adobe Premiere in 24 Hours always reminds its readers of the big picture and what they're trying to accomplish. The book includes not only instruction on the basics of using Premiere, but also tips on shooting high quality video, creating professional voice-overs, and effective methods.
Adobe Premiere brings high-end video editing to the PC (90% of Premiere users use Windows). Anyone with a Windows PC who wants to venture into anything more than very simple video editing will eventually turn to Premiere.
The planned new version of Premiere (slated for release in late summer 2002) will garner significant attention in part because it will add DVD authoring to its extensive feature set. The opportunity to create DVDs-from home movies to Hollywood productions-on PCs is a dramatic development, and Premiere will be at the forefront of the emerging technology. The author has been working closely with Adobe, advising them on DVD software issues.

good book for beginners.......2003-12-27
My only complaint is: the book has black and white illustrations that are small and hard to read.

Tech-ie's Reference Manual.......2003-02-14
Teach yourself Premiere in 24 hours - as Einstein once said, Time is relative. If you just bought a digital camcorder and you want to splice some clips together, then move on with life, consider a different book such as Adobe Premiere for Dummies. This book makes a great reference manual, but lacks the basics for beginners. This is targeted more towards the advanced video editor with some past experience.
Video effects add 'spice.' Consider the 'meat.' A few fades, cut-away's, and a touch of transition is all it takes to edit quality raw footage. This book covers video and audio effects in great detail and provides a lot of insight into movie making. He does get a little pompous, so don't let him push you around e.g. A/B editing. This book, as well as Adobe Premiere for Dummies, insist you use single track editing. Don't be intimidated. If you understand Adobe's concept of 'layers' in Photoshop, you will find A/B editing more intuitive and easier to use.
You can use this book for Premiere 6.0, as well as 6.5 - unless you're really big on 'titles'. For authoring DVD's, most authoring programs provide mpeg2 encoding, something to consider before spending the money on the upgrade to 6.5.

Book Description
National icon Willie Nelson has evolved over the years from country music outlaw swimming against a Whiskey River to a Zen-like figure of wisdom and contentment. In this autobiographical collection of life advice, The Tao of Willie, one of America's truest hearts reveals the spiritual and practical lessons learned from decades of hard knocks and good bounces.This inspiring and entertaining collection of "Willie wisdom" takes us from his days as a young boy in Texas where he learns to respect his elders, to his roadhouse days when he united redneck rockers, long-haired hippies and straight-laced country music fans, to the mega-sized benefit concerts and environmentalism that define his boundless heart. And there are plenty of his favorite jokes along the way.
With stories that will both make you laugh out loud and look deep inside yourself, he shows us how the Willie way and the way of the Tao can also be your way. Let Willie's common sense approach to life awaken you to the happiness that already exists in your own heart.

Advanced Sex Tips for Girls: This Time It's Personal
Cynthia Heimel Manufacturer: Simon & Schuster ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0684849224 |
Book Description
Cynthia Heimel was oppressed, just like you, by loneliness and indecision and love and lust and high heels. She decided to have a wonderful time anyway, but it hurt. From the crucible of her agony she wrote the runaway hit, Sex Tips for Girls, and everyone (except Christian fundamentalists) thought it was funny and wise. Actually, it was a perfect book, especially when it told you to get into bed upside down.
Cynthia smiled wanly at her success, because frankly the oppression continued. It was even worse. So then from the crucible of that agony she wrote Advanced Sex Tips for Girls, another perfect book, something to giggle at whether you were brokenhearted or warily in love again.
In Advanced Sex Tips for Girls we take a tour of the decades that informed our sexual politics. Using Cynthia's own life in particular, we learn why we are the way we are and how we can understand the Book of Love.
Should you date a man who's on Prozac? Why is "single" a buzzword that makes us feel like killing ourselves? What's so funny about a man in a dress? Why was the panty girdle the straw that broke the back of the patriarchy? What if your son gets married on MTV? Is the Backlash over? Why does the theory of evolution dictate that every human must get laid as much as humanly possible? And just wait until you read "The Hobag Manifesto," which will join The Female Eunuch and The Second Sex in the pantheon of feminist literature and will make you die laughing.
You'll love this book. It will become your new best friend.

"Rule #10: Don't eat like a bird on a date."Looking for some real guidance in the strange new world of dating, boys, and relationships? If advice from your Great Aunt Petunia ("Boys are only after one thing, honey. Watch out!") or your big sister ("Oh puh-lease, you're so immature!") isn't quite cutting it, this book is for you. Thirty-one rules offer girls solid advice (not laws!) on difficult dating questions. For example, is it okay to cancel plans with a friend if that hottie in American History class asks you out? What if you see your best friend's boyfriend making out with another girl? How can you tell--or show--the guy you have a crush on that you want to kiss him? Each rule provides commonsense suggestions for handling different situations, and includes comments from teens who have dealt with the same issues. The emphasis is on building strong, healthy, honest relationships. A fun, lighthearted tone encourages teens to explore this territory without getting bogged down in unnecessary games or heavy commitment. (Ages 13 and older) --Emilie Coulter
Book Description
How do I know if I like him or love him? Am I ready to have sex? THE RULES FOR TEENS provides sound advice on romance in over 25 simple tips, including: Unless it's an emergency, never cancel plans with your girlfriends for a guy; if you sense your boyfriend is bored with you, don't adopt a whole new personality, etc.Customer Reviews:
