Alexis Van Hurkman, DigitalFilm Tree - Collection Apple Pro Training Series
Résumé
The Apple-Certified Way to Learn
The only Apple-authorized guide to color correction and advanced effects for video professionals, this comprehensive book-DVD combo delivers hard-to-find training in the techniques you'll use every day. Each chapter presents a complete lesson in topics ranging from motion effects, filters, keying, compositing, and titling to scene-to-scene color matching and correcting for broadcast specifications.
Using 2 GB of superb footage, you'll create dynamic effects, apply multiple filters, and add text generators. You'll also composite video and graphics in a variety of ways, work with nested sequences to control the layering of images, and use keying techniques like a pro. In the book's extensive color correction section, colorist Alexis Van Hurkman shows you how to objectively evaluate images using the video scopes, precisely control contrast and color, and identify and correct common problems. He moves beyond corrective measures to the more creative uses of color correction, such as creating a variety of color effects and using secondary correction to isolate portions of an image for specific adjustments. Finally, a special DVD-only section on LiveType teaches you to create sophisticated animated titles.
