Editorial Reviews

Review

"The most consistently useful book I"ve owned in many years. This is technical writing at its best: lucid prose that explains and exemplifies the vast capabilities of QuickTime on the Web, then goes on to inspire a flood of ideas that can be explored right away because the enclosed CD includes great sample code, media, and essential tools, including QuickTime Player Pro."
-Dr. Frank Lowney
Director, Electronic Instructional Services
Georgia College & State University

"Its broad possibilities make QuickTime the technology to tell a captivating tale. With such a technology you need proper guidance to successfully relay your message; QuickTime for the Web is the book to do so. Whether you are a novice or an expert, this book will guide you through all the important aspects, with intricate real-world examples, as well as inspire new ways of authoring. With its engaging writing, it's a joy to read and . . . the best reference manual on the subject."
-Mario Piepenbrink
QuickTime Evangelist
Bluevilla

"Since QuickTime is an always evolving technology and now has support for MPEG-4 and a number of other features, it's great to have this third edition available. . . . As in the first two editions, this QuickTime for the Web offers easy and thorough explanations. This edition will always be on my desk at hand's reach and not tucked away in a bookshelf."
-Francesco Schiavon
Digital Media Deployment Instructor
Vancouver Film School, Interactive Media

"QuickTime for the Web, Third Edition, is a fantastic resource for anyone who works with new media. It"s a must-have reference for anyone who wants to use digital computer media at any level, beginner or expert. I"ve learned more glancing through this book than I could ever hope to gather from various other sources or glean from my own experience. This book will open your eyes to all the possibilities that QuickTime enables."
-Jim Longo
Cofounder
Rhythm Division

"An impressively thorough reference that also functions well as a general introduction to a complex and extensive technology. Unlike many "authorized" texts, this up-to-date book reveals all the tricks and gotchas with exactly the encyclopedic level of detail that the subject deserves. Everyone working on the internet/multimedia axis should have a copy."
-Brennan Young
Multimedia Programmer

"The title QuickTime for the Web doesn"t really do this book justice. Although QuickTime and targeting it for the Web is the main focus of the book, it"s about a whole lot more than that. I"d say it"s the book to read for all that is QuickTime. The wealth of information just about QuickTime is incredible. And oh, by the way, it has a lot of great information about related technologies like streaming, Flash, SMIL, etc. . . . The book . . . is different from most technical books of its kind. It"s easy to read, contains some humor, is written by someone who knows the technology well, and above all you can tell the author is excited about what you can do with QuickTime. I"d rate this as a must-read for anyone doing anything with QuickTime. It contains everything you need to know to deploy QuickTime content and more. It also does a great job of explaining what specific tools you"ll need to build the QuickTime content of your choice."
-Brad Behrendt

"QuickTime for the Web unleashes the power of digital media. This comprehensive guide is an excellent ready reference to the extensive visual, audio, and interactive capabilities of QuickTime. From basic concepts through clear how-to examples and a wealth of tips, the author covers all aspects of creating and delivering QuickTime media for the Web. This edition extends a keystone work to include the myriad of new features in the QuickTime 6 release."
-Steven M. Cox, Ph.D.
Interactive New Media Developer

"Steve's book provides that broad view and deserves to be the first stop on any prospective QuickTime programmer's reading list." - Time Monroe - MacTech
