This book/DVD tutorial provides lessons in Apple's new color grading software, for Final Cut experts and newcomers alike. The book is designed to improve readers' skills as colorists and as operators of the software. Each self-contained lesson builds on the last to guide readers through the program's functions and capabilities, and includes a review and color screen shots. The book is organized to follow the software's workflow model through Final Cut's eight different "rooms," with details on how to use the many controls in each room and which tools and techniques to apply given the specific shots and circumstances of a particular project. The companion DVD contains project files and video content for each exercise. Readers should have a working knowledge of the Mac OS X operating system. Wohl has been an independent filmmaker for 15 years. Co-author David Gross is a film colorist and editor at Fox Studios in Australia. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
