Customer Reviews

OK if you have Photoshop, Illustrator & all Adobe Software!
Don't get me wrong this is a very good & comprehensive book, BUT, if you are looking for tutorials (I was), there is one short one at the start and the you're on your own.
I was very interested in learning how to make cool titles in Premiere, so I eagerly turned to that Chapter which said...'Open Photoshop...' and 'Import into Illustrator and then...'
Check out Adobe's Premiere 6 Classroom in a book if you are looking for tutorials and not a reference book and you won't make the same mistake I did.

Inspirational!!!
Having read the Photoshop Bible, I knew I was in for big things when I bought this recently. I've only had it a day and it's opened my mind to Premiere 6 in ways I couldn't have imagined. Well indexed and informative I highly recomend this to anyone interested in digital editing. And I'm not speaking from a strictly professional viewpoint here. I am new to Premiere and discovered a wide range of things to get my teeth into, ranging from basic to advanced. All in all this book is user friendly and insightful. Buy it!

Covers all of Adobe Premiere
I basically use the book as a reference or when I get stuck in Adobe Premiere. Till now it has solved all my problems and the places where I got stuck or forgot. I can confidently say that this book contains all you need to know about Adobe Premiere. I don't think that there are any better books as reference as well as for learning the program.
