Review

Of all the After Effects books I looked at whilst trying to learn it, I found Angie's was the most user-friendly and creative.
Chris Cunningham, director of music videos, commercials and video art

.a worthwhile investment for animators and artists who want to focus on creating their designs and not get bogged down in technical jargon.
Steve Kilisky, Senior Product Manager, After Effects, Adobe Systems Inc.

...one of my favorite demo artists in the industry. Her tutorials are always compelling, well-designed, and worthwhile.
Brian Maffit, Total Training

Angie is an outstanding guru of After Effects...sitting at one of Angie's seminars brings gasps of awe from seasoned and beginner audiences alike.... you will enjoy this book immensely.

5.0 out of 5 stars After Effects 7.0 is Not Dead
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 May 2013
Verified Purchase
An exceptional book from an exceptional graphic artist. Well-defined graphics and text throughout. A great way to establish a genuine Adobe AE workflow, simply. The book is obviously focused on the Mac user, but PC users are also accommodated. Be it in a little, but confusing way.

Considering that "used" AE 7.0 (or otherwise) is so cheap now, this is well worth the purchase and Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction
Reviewed in the United States on 28 September 2006

Iam a college student and my ambhition seems to be leaning towards film editing for the past couple of years I have worked with Final Cut Pro which was a farely simple , yet complex peice of editing software. This year Iam in an advanced class where our teacher has stressed to us to work with some Adobe After Effects 7 in additon with final cut pro I bought this book to help me further understand the software. The first time I opened up After Effects I will admit I was Iniminated I tried fooling around with some of the panels and stuff and couldnt figure anything out ,, So now I have started from chapter 1 with this book I inserted the dvd that it comes with into the computer which has sort of a classroom in a book feel to this book but much better.. Go through the chapters using the source clips provided on the dvd. This has helped me understand what After Effects is about now Iam not finished with this book yet but wanted to write a review on this because it has helped me with its easy reading and keyboard shortcuts for both pc and mac. It explains every small detail in easy to understand language there is no computer/video editor slang.. If you are looking for a good editing book and you have Adobe After Effects 7.0 This is its Bible not the manual , which tends to use more slang assming that the purchaser knows what they are talking about , the manual tends to make things more difficult. This book makes even someone has never worked with film editing able to accomplish what they would like and learn the software.

I Love This Book

Thanks Angie Taylor

1.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly incoherent
Reviewed in the United States on 18 October 2008

This book is so filled with typos and the accompanying dvd has so many support files missing that it is really discouraging, i really struggled to understand what the author meant to say or instruct that actually learned a few workarounds for a few things, i guess that's a good thing but not when you spend 8 hours in a 2 hour lesson. Obviously absolutely nobody proof read this book before going to printing, nor they checked the dvd either. Just don't waste your money, try AE apprentice from the Chris and Trish Meyer, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better book and carefully published.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good information, poor presentation
Reviewed in the United States on 6 April 2007

As another reviewer noted, this book is filled with typographical errors as well as mistakes that make for a frustrating learning experience. Figure and file references are often wrong, causing considerable confusion. It's too bad because apparently there is a some of good information and instruction in the book.

The book is written from a Mac and British perspective and has modernist type examples that might not appeal to everyone. This however doesn't explain why a proofreader wasn't used before this book was published.

I haven't finished it yet and I don't know if I will. Being led down several dead ends already due to the typos, I'm getting discouraged.

Update: I'm still slogging through this book (I've already highlighted places in it, so I'm pretty much stuck with keeping it) and I'm becoming more sympathetic with the reviewer who said to avoid this thing. Mistakes are rife and the grotesque images used in some of the examples (Fig. 3.21 and 7.1 especially) are real turn-offs. Everyone buying After Effects wants to use the special effects actually in the program. This book devotes a whole 34 pages out of 566 specifically to Effects. Quite a let down.

Update: Finally completed this mess! Don't waste your money on this thing unless you want to see one of the most error filled books you've ever encountered. This is something a junior high student would be ashamed to submit. In addition, the freelance writer of this book apparently doesn't want anyone to really learn her "secrets" about animations, such as "talking" animals. So only just enough information is given to fill the book but not enough to really teach anyone how to accomplish the given tasks.
