Genre: eLearning

The DVD covers the Color Interface because that is the biggest stumbling block for anyone trying to use this application. It looks completely different than just about anything else in the Mac marketplace so before you can really get into anything else with Color, you need to understand the interface.

In all it?s about 2 hours of training to get you comfortable with all the Rooms and how the interface works.

So what exact is the primary focus of this DVD?

My focus is to get you comfortable with Color and to show you just how simple the interface truly is to operate. People tell me all the time they?re intimidated by the interface and ask me why it looks the way it does. Because it was not designed for video editors, it was designed for professional Colorists who are used to operating systems with a similar layout as Color.

So if you?re a video editor or someone who has never sat in a color correction suite before, then this DVD is definitely for you. There is a method to the madness that is Color and by taking the time to walk you through the rooms and the controls, I feel that is the best way for you to truly begin to enjoy this powerful tool. Heck Apple handed you a $25,000 color correction tool for free, so get in there and start using it!

What?s actually on the DVD?

The DVD contains 9 tutorial videos and at times we go room by room, control by control and other times we jump around the interface depending on what the natural flow is of that area of the interface. In the case of Setup, well that?s all self-contained whereas the Secondaries Room very often involves the ColorFX and Geometry Room. So where appropriate we will flow from room to room.

The tutorials are provided in Quicktime Format, approximately 1024x768. (We had to leave a little room for the player controls.)

The Chapters are:

* Chapter 1: The Prelude
Opening up Color for the First Time, starting Color from the Projects Screen, and setting up the screens for the lessons.

* Chapter 2: What is Color?
A brief history and explanation of why the interface looks like it does

* Chapter 3:Setup / User Preferences

* Chapter 7: ColorFX Room & Primary Out
