Ozer's Microsoft Windows Movie Maker 2 book delivers the Visual Quickstart that it promises! The book includes easy to follow instructions for everything that one can do with Movie Maker 2. Ozer's "voice" is friendly and instructive. The text in the book is accompanied by helpful screenshots on virtually every page.
I used this book with educators/trainers in a master's level course to teach them how to create digital video on the PC. My students and I agreed that the book was easy to understand, interesting to read, and thorough enough to answer our most technical questions.
I highly recommended this book for anyone using Movie Maker 2!!

Well did Jan Ozer. I really liked the Practical tips on shooting and editing in the beginning of the book. Great teaching from start to finish without jumping around. Nice and easy to understand visuals. I've studied graphic design and would recommend any Visual Quickstart Guide. (I tried Microsoft Windows Movie Maker 2 Do Amazing Things! and Didn't like it. Not enough visuals, jumped around, and to much reading)

I didn't know - and this book showed me how to use it. It is so easy to create a narrated powerpoint presentation, and give you the ability to distribute as needed.

I cannot believe how easy it is to create movies using my video camera, and even better, the softare is FREE (Look in your "START <ALL PROGRAMS>" to find it.

This book could NOT make it easier to take full use of the program.

I lead a business unit and now pre-record and narrate all of my powerpoint presentations, which has eliminated the need to give multiple presentations on the same topic. This has reduced my travel, time needed to present multiple times, etc.

I looked at a number of other books on the Microsoft software package, and this one is the easiest to use by far. YOU WILL BE AN EXPERT AT CREATING VIDEO BLOGS OR NARRATED POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS IN LESS THAN A FEW HOURS using this book.

Jan Ozer's book was a great find for me. I needed to quickly edit digital interviews using Movie Maker 2 and this book gave me everything I needed (and more)! I jumped right in reading the chapters I needed--I'll save the "other stuff" for another day.

This is an excellent resource tool for my book shelf. I really like how the author took his own personal project and walked me through it from beginning to end, offering process and tips along the way.

I edited a professional looking video for the web--not bad for a first project!

I wanted to know how I could take video from my camera, edit it, create a video and store it on a CD. This book did exactly that in a no-brainer manner. The book showed the Window's screens and what you had to do at each screen. The only minor problem is that the screens are different for different versions of Windows.

Movie Maker2 by Jan Ozer is An Excellent Book. I,like most people,have Windows Movie Maker on my computer so I wanted a book that would help me do good book promotion video's and understand the program better. This book does everything I hoped for and I am glad I purchased this book and every since I purchased it I use it at least once a week to make sure I am doing things right and also to see if the book suggests doing something different that will result in a better video. My video can be seen on my web-sites and places like Google and Yahoo. Look for ErvHarmon

Thank you Jan Ozer for writing this book as it has helped me very much and I gladly recommend it to anyone that wants good results from Windows Movie Maker2

This book is an easy to understand read.
It is also written in a way you can use it easily for referencing.
Explains everything in a detailed step by step fashion with explicit black and white pictures.
Highly recommend this book and Movie Maker Zero to Hero for anyone who wishes to use Movie Maker seriously for your home videos or projects.

Its easy to see that The Invaders had an influence on the space alien genre. This 1967 Quinn Martin production series should be a part of anyone's sci fi collection, as it brings about the same quality as shows like the Night Stalker and The X-Files. I highly recommend fans get this series and watch it over and over.

Download and research for movie maker effects, I found some decent transitions and title effects for movie maker :)
