Review
Excellent intro to the subject, particularly useful in linking film cutting, tape editing and digital nonlinear production.
Good coverage of subject - videotape editing - prod needs to decide how to handle non-linear postproduction. Many academic acilities lack time code systems, but are moving toward digital editing. (But I'm sure you're thinking about this already.)

From the Publisher
This book is a "real world" guide to both the technical and non-technical aspects of videotape production. The text and numerous illustrations bring the reader up-to-date on the latest developments in video, including component video signal, field rate SMPTE time code, Betacam SP (TM), VHS HiFi, the videotape editing bay, control edit list cleaning, and multi-format editing. Anderson also provides timely information on the latest film to video offline systems, track editing, time-code editing, offline editing, digital video effects systems, electronic animation and graphics systems, and personal computers that function as edit controllers and edit list management tools. Combining basic information on editing equipment and techniques with tips on budgeting, organization, and getting into video editing, this is a valuable reference tool for experienced and novice editing professionals.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A great book for new editors!,
By
This review is from: Video Editing and Post-Production: A Professional Guide (Kipi Bookshelf) (Hardcover)
First off I have to say that the other reviewers are correct in saying that this book is geared toward linear editing. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!!! ALL editors should know what an EDL is or how 3:2 pulldown works or even what a field is. Unfortunately most non-linear editors haven't a clue about these things and when I, the finishing editor gets ahold of their lists (or OMF's) it makes my life a living hell! All editors should know how to read a scope especially if they are outputting their masterpieces to tape. so often broadcasters are getting unacceptable masters due to editors not being able to read video levels. This is where this book is a godsend. It explains in great detail all these issues and more to make you become a more professional editor. This book won't necessarily going to help you artistically (although there is a few chapters on esthetics) but it might make you more money in the real world by giving you tools that shows & production companies are looking for.

The Best Linear Editing Book!,
By
This review is from: Video Editing and Post Production, Fourth Edition: a Professional Guide (Paperback)
This text book has been used to instruct students in the technical art of linear video editing for many years. The only glitch is how many people need instruction in linear editing? It starts off with a brief history of video edting, talks about time code, editors, editing with multiple machines, gets a little technical with the analog video signal, introduces you to a typical linear post system, audio for post, how to organise your post project and ends with a look into the future. Except that the future is now!
2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointing and Outdated,
By ilker canikligil (Istanbul Turkey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Video Editing and Post Production, Fourth Edition: a Professional Guide (Paperback)
I was looking for something covering video post production topics completely. Although the name gives such an impression this book is not a good choice: First of all It is a little bit old fashioned and outdated. The subjects are not covered in depth and there are some parts that are really hard to understand. This is not a "guide", this is not a real "textbook" so it is inbetween.
