iMovie'09 and iDVD: The Missing Manual (Paperback)

Bursting with new features, Apple's iMovie '09 is vastly more usable and complete than iMovie '08--amazing right out of the box. But the box doesn't include a good user's guide, so learning these applications is another matter. iMovie '09 and iDVD: The Missing Manual gets you up to speed on everything you need to turn raw digital footage into highly creative video projects.

You get crystal-clear, jargon-free explanations of iMovie's new video effects, slow & fast motion, advanced drag & drop, video stabilization, and more. Author and New York Times tech columnist David Pogue uses an objective lens to scrutinize every step of process, including how to:

Organize your videos just like your photos, and precisely edit with ease

Work on multiple iMovie projects at once and drag & drop clips among them

Integrate with other iLife programs to use songs, photos, and an original sound track

Output your creation to a blog, its own web page, or as a video podcast with iWeb

Understand basic film techniques to improve the quality of the video you bring to iMovie

From choosing and using a digital camcorder to burning the finished work onto DVDs, posting it online, or creating versions for iPod and iPhone, iMovie '09 & iDVD: The Missing Manual helps you zoom right in on the details.

充滿新功能的蘋果iMovie '09比iMovie '08更易用和完整，從一開始就令人驚艷。但是，盒子裡並沒有附上一本好的使用者指南，所以學習這些應用程式是另一回事。《iMovie '09和iDVD：遺失的手冊》讓您快速掌握將原始數位素材轉換為高度創意的視頻項目所需的一切。

您將獲得對iMovie的新視頻效果、慢速和快速運動、高級拖放、視頻穩定等的清晰、不含行話的解釋。作者和《紐約時報》科技專欄作家大衛·波格使用客觀的觀點來審查每個步驟，包括如何：

- 像處理照片一樣組織您的視頻，並輕鬆進行精確編輯
- 同時處理多個iMovie項目，並在它們之間拖放片段
- 與其他iLife程序整合，使用歌曲、照片和原創配樂
- 將您的作品輸出到部落格、自己的網頁或作為視頻播客與iWeb
- 了解基本的電影技巧，以提高您帶入iMovie的視頻質量

從選擇和使用數位攝像機到將完成的作品刻錄到DVD、在線發布或為iPod和iPhone創建版本，《iMovie '09＆iDVD：遺失的手冊》幫助您專注於細節。
