Adobe Premiere Elements For Dummies

opportunity to work with editing tools as powerful as those packed
into Adobe Premiere Pro, one of the top tools on the market.

software, but also a valuable reference on how to best apply the
tools to a great video project.

  opening credits page, transitions between clips, sound, music, and
  ending credits.

  Internet

Covering more ground than the typical expanded users manuals you
find in bookstores, Adobe Premiere Elements For Dummies is the book

well as to return to whenever you hit rough spots and need instant
