4.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Refrence for Quicktime Media Format, May 24, 2002
By gabrielle smith (Sydney Australia) - See all my reviews
I was one of the people in the role of technical reviewer for Revolutionary Quicktime Pro 5 & 6. I can recommend it as a comprehensive and sophisticated reference for Apples Quicktime format. It describes in depth the tools you use from capture to deployment of your Quicktime media content. It covers QuickTime's integration with a broad range of media types and the expansive methods of deployment for your Quicktime media.

Most importantly it discusses the Quicktime format in relation to the content creators needs including information for the linear filmmaker to the interactive media designer. It is an in-depth resource for any designer looking to author interactive media, QTVR, DVD or Streaming QuickTime. Each chapter also includes some excellent tutorials especially for those interested in pushing QuickTime's level of interactivity. The section on tools is particularly relevant because of the amount of software, which supports QuickTime, and this is a guide to how the developer might choose tools and resources for their particular project.

5.0 out of 5 stars Words from the Experts!, August 16, 2002
Wow. After seeing the author list for this book, I had to get a copy. You don't have to spend much time at industry events like Apple's QuickTime Live before you'll run into several of them, lecturing to the assembled. Turns out they're not just nice people who know QuickTime intimately well, they're also great authors!

This book is a solid introduction to the underpinnings of QuickTime and many of the applications empowered by its multimedia abilities. While other books, such as Steven Gulie's QuickTime for the Web or the QuickTime Developers Series might offer more focused explorations of certain complex areas of QuickTime, no book I've found provides as good an overview of the technology - and it's use in the real world - than this book. If you're new to QuickTime and wondering what it can do, this book will be an eye opener. And it'll make you laugh too.

I used this book to figure out how to make QTVR panoramas and digital movies - has some great examples and useful files on the CD. Lots of great tips and tricks, I recommend it.
