IMovie Tutorial (Book)

I bought a copy of iLife.05 book at MAC Expo in London and whilst it`s quite good it`s not what I`d call iMovie Specific. Does anynone know a really good book (tutorial) with colour help-as-you-go pics for would be Movie Moguls in the making like me please.
I`ve tried the `support and `Apple tutorials` but I have to constantly trawl back and fro to try and find what I want. I could take a book with me and read it anywhere, anytime? Any Ideas/Suggestions as my local bookshops are no good.

  • IMovie Tutorial in Spanish?

    Anyone know how I can find a copy of iMovie tutorial in Spanish? I'm tryint to teach a Spanish speaking editor how to use it, and it would be so nice to have her read it in Spanish... I'm hoping for a download somewhere.
    PowerBook G4 1.6 80gb   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    maybe a Spanish version of the software?
    If you select Spanish as the first choice of language in System Prefs: International, iMovie will be in Spanish.

  • How to create a database for sample code from Tutorial/Book?

    I want to try out the sample code from [http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920013471.do] for the book SQL Pocket Guide 3rd Ed.
    I have downloaded the oracle vm/appliance for oracle 11g2 and I have started sqlplus as sysdba.
    I'm feeling overwhelmed with these links describing how to create a database:
    [http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html]
    [http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO-3.html]
    [http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html]
    (1) What is the command to list the existing databases?
    (2) What is the command to delete an existing database?
    (3) When creating a new database with the create database command, is it necessary to specify the logfile, character set, national character set, datafile, sysaux datafile, undo tablespace, temp table space? Do these have reasonable defaults? I'm not sure what proper directories are to specify for Linux and the examples are for windows.
    Can someone give me a simplified create database command to create a database called 3rdEdPocketGuide? Should I follow the example at [http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO-3.html] and instead of orcl use 3rdEdPocketGuide?
    (4) What command do I use to execute the script that comes with the book SQL Pocket Guide 3rd Ed? This is the script that has all the drop table, create table and insert commands in it.
    (5) What command do I use in sqlplus to set the current default database prior to running this script? Perhaps this is the connect command? I don't want my script to create tables in the system database.
    (6) I tried the command "connect 3rdEdPocketGuide" and it prompted for a password! Yikes! What password? Do I need to specify a password when I create a database? I cannot tell if I have successfully created such a database or it is just prompting me for a password to thwart malicious users. Is it is possible to create databases which don't require a password or maybe a zero length password?
    Thanks

    Anyway, I'm trying your suggestion to use SQL Developer which was already installed in the virtual box appliance and I cannot figure out how to get a connection.
    When I use the defaults of sid=xe, port=1521, hostname=localhost and specify
    username=sysdba
    password=
    I get status: failure - test failed: listener refursed connection with the following error: ORA 12505, TNS: listener does not current know of sid given.
    So I try sid=orcl and that works better: status: failure - test failed: ORA-01017: invalid username/passowrd; login denied
    OK, sqlplus let me in with out a password, why does not this work?
    So I try checking the box for "OS Authentication" and I get the same error!
    Hoek: I tried searching the documentation and found "3 Exploring Oracle Database with SQL Developer" at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10766/toc.htm but following those directions did not help. Can you be more specific? The directions were for a tutorial and I need to know what the passwords are for the database set up with [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/databaseappdev-vm-161299.html|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/databaseappdev-vm-161299.html] .

    Everyone:
    Do I need to create a user using SQL*Plus first so I can login with "Oracle SQL Developer" so I create my database called? What would be the "create user" command I would execute?
    OK, so I run sqlplus and issue these commands
    create user siegfried identified by abc ;
    grant connect to siegfried ;
    connect siegfried/abc;
    Now, how do I create a database? In Microsoft SQL Server one has to create a database first and if you just start creating tables without creating a database first, the tables will be created in the system database and this is usually undesirable.
    Sometimes a database is known in the java connection string as the catalog. Is there any such analog in oracle SQL plus?
    So now what do I do? I want to create a bunch of tables using my script I downloaded from 3rd Ed SQL Pocket Guide. Does my new user "siegfried" have the right to create tables? I guess I could try but I don't want to create tables in the system database.
    I noticed I can also use "Oracle SQL Developer" to connect with my new "siegfried" account. It seems that I should have been able to connect with sysdba... strange.
    So now I am connected in the "Oracle SQL Developer" and I see no list of databases.
    Thanks!

  • CS6 Video Editing Tutorial Books?

    Can anyone recommend good CS6 video editing tutorials? Preferably a book that covers in-depth video editing in PS. (online tutorials would be helpful as well.)
    Specifically I want to select portions of a video and cut it out.  (Could be anywhere in the video) Also paste other video segments into another place within a video. Possibly in the beginning, the end or some where in-between.
    Thxs in advance.

  • Photoshop Elements 7 tutorial book recommendation

    Hi - I'm looking for a recommendation for a practical, how-to book for Photoshop Elements 7.  I am new to the software and have purchased a book which is pretty good but it's still too much like a technical manual.  Two books by Avi Muchnick, "When Pancakes Go Bad: Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" and "I've Got a Human in My Throat:  MORE Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" teach how to use the software in a practical fashion using fun projects - not just telling me what each function does as most technical manuals do.  The sample images are also included so that the user can work along with the book making it a truly a hands-on experience which is what I want.  I'm told that most of what is in these books applies to PE7.  I have two questions:
    1.  If anyone has used either of these books, how well did you think they related to PE7?
    2.  What other book would someone recommend as a good hands-on PE7 tutorial?  I do not have a very fast internet connection so, for now, I would prefer to learn using a book with software if possible.  However, I know there is a wealth of good on-line tutorials out there so any recommendations for those would also be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I have used "How to Cheat in Photoshop Elements 7" and found it interesting.
    But you can find lot of stuff online specific to your requirement.... Usually I prefer to read PSE blogs or online tutorials whenever I have any specific requirement in terms of Editing....

    Hi..
    The minimum requriements for iMovie are Mac OS X v10.7.4 or later. Same for iPhoto

    I'm brand new to Mac
    You can upgrade your Mac to Lion if it meets the requirements.
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OSX v10.6.6 or later (V10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available spare
    In the About This Mac window you'll see:  Processor  It must say  Core 2 Duo in order to upgrade to Lion and at least 2GB of memory (RAM).
    Check to see how much free space there is on the startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon on the Desktop.
    Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.

  • Tutorial book for iLife 08

    I just purchased iLife 08 and wonder if there is an interactive guide published for this version? I found Jim Heid's book "The Macintosh iLife '05" guide very helpful as well as Michael Rubin's "iLife '06' tutorial. I know there are some downloadable tutorials available on the Apple web site. Thanks for your input.

    I think you're going to need to wait a few days... it's only been out a week.

  • What is the best Premiere CS6 reference/tutorial book for an experienced editor?

    Greetings all. I am a working professional editor here in Los Angeles, doing mostly short-form promos, trailers. and web videos. I have years of experience with both Avid and Final Cut Pro, and switch back and forth between them from job to job.
    Lately I've noticed that more and more jobs are popping up that want you to know Premiere, and I'd like to teach myself. When I learned Final Cut I bought an excellent book called, "Final Cut Pro for Avid Editors" by Diana Weynand. Does anyone know if there's something similar for Premiere?
    But failing that, a good general reference with advanced tutorials would be good! My preference is to have an actual book (as opposed to videos) so that I can leaf back through it to look something up. In the last few months I taught myself After Effects using the book, "After Effects Apprentice" by Trish and Chris Meyer. That was a great book, and I'd love to find something similar for Premiere.
    Do you folks recommend the "Classroom in a Book" item, or is there something else better out there.
        Any advice welcome!
                    -Dennis

    Hi Dennis,
    This is one of the better ones: http://www.amazon.com/Editors-Guide-Adobe-Premiere-Pro/dp/0321773012

    Hey guys,
    Any recommendations for a book/DVD that goes in-depth on Audio Editing in FCP?
    thanks!

    Well, I'm wondering if I can do things like multiple audio edits and speed changes in FCP and then send over to Soundtrack Pro without a hitch, and back. Also, any list of audio editing tips/shortcuts would be great.

  • Logic Express Tutorial Book?

    Hi, heard a lot on this forum about this book from Martin Sitter (hope the name's right) to guide you in the deep of both Logic and Logic express. I know it should be out there from a long time, so I'm afraid that having missed it before, I'll be not able to find it anymore.
    May you tell me if this book is still in stock and where I should find it?

  • LR tutorial/book recommendation?

    What online guides, downloadable PDF files or books are there for LR3 (Mac) which are a quick, light and easy read?
    I'm looking for something which will give me a firm understanding of the basics.
    What's available?

    John Blaustein wrote: I am going to guess that the number of disappointed users is very small compared to those of us who have found LR 4.3 to be a huge improvement over LR 3.
    That would be my guess as well.
    Not every picture will by ripe for huge improvement, but the longer I use Lr4, the more I come to appreciate it's superior quality and expanded tool set.
    Sometimes the improvements are obvious immediately, e.g. when there are highlights that are recovered in Lr4 that would have been "out of reach" in Lr3, but sometimes the improvements are more subtle, e.g. fill-light halos are missing: you only see that at 1:1, still it's a big deal in some photos. Also, in general, the color and tone is just better. I actually liked the over-saturated (and color-shifted) shadows which came sometimes in Lr3, but overall, having the more correct shadow color in Lr4 is a plus. Likewise, sometimes the whites get more compressed in Lr4 than Lr3, but it's done to preserve proper color when channels begin to clip at the top end, which in most cases, is a good thing, and when it's not, there is some remedy to be had using RGB curves (which are not in the Lr3 toolset).
    PS - The automatic chromatic aberration correction in Lr4 is awesome - I've forgotten CA  exists when left uncorrected (yes, I know some people have pointed out that there are some few cases where it doesn't work as well as manual, still: Adobe did an excellent job with Lr4's automatic CA correction, in my opinion). And if it's the trickier kind, targeted global defringing exists, which works perfectly sometimes, and when not, can be augmented using paint-brush.
    Speaking of locals, the expanded options in Lr4 are a godsend - I've gotten so used to them now, that I forget they don't exist in Lr3...
    OK, sorry - I'll stop there: sometimes I get carried away...........
    About me:
    Please don't flag me as a Fanboy or Defender - I'm not: I also have my complaints, which, when voiced, sometimes result in Fanboy/Defenders flagging me as a "basher" . My loyalty lies with the users, and the truth (as I see it) - not with Adobe, nor against them...
    Cheers,
    Rob

  • Good SSL & PHP Tutorial/Book

    Anybody know of a good, in-depth, but still easy to understand resource for start-to-finish ssl with php?
    Thanks!

    I don't use SSL, but "Pro PHP Security" by Chris Snyder and Michael Southwell devotes an entire chapter to the subject. Overall, it's an excellent book. It was published five years ago, but AFAIK is still up to date.
