Summary

Do you have a cinematic story to tell? Are you interested in learning how to make independent productions using the popular and affordable QuickTime Pro? If so, you will find all the instructions you need in this hands-on guide. Digital Movies with QuickTime Pro is the first comprehensive book to teach home computer users (Windows or Mac) how to make digital movies from start to finish. It focuses on how QuickTime Pro can be used to make a feature-length digital movie, using tutorial footage from an actual independent movie shot in video and finished in QuickTime Pro. Geared toward aspiring and intermediate filmmakers, the book begins with comprehensive information on what cinematic effects to employ, and common screenwriting/shooting pitfalls to avoid. In addition, there is coverage of the key bushiness aspects of movie making, including how to form a corporation, develop a schedule, and scout for talent. From there users learn how to shoot cinematic DV footage and use QuickTime Pro as a stand-alone editing tool, or in conjunction with other popular editing software such as iMovie 2, Final Cut Pro 3, Discreet Cleaner 5.1, or Adobe Premiere 6. Once the film is edited, the various delivery methods are covered. QuickTime films can be burned to CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, or displayed on a laptop. They can be streamed or downloaded to a Web site, or they can be output as composite video onto VHS. Whatever method your audience needs, you'll find details on how to deliver your finished work effectively.
