Summary: Title Deceiving, but Good Book
Comment: I felt an obligation to write a review on this book because it is an excellent book for beginners or reference, but has almost absolutely nothing to do with the title "Integrating Final Cut Pro, Avid, and Media 100."
I read the book from cover to cover. It is a basic introduction to editing from film, as well as non-linear editing (computers). It gives detailed information on what information is needed in order to get your film cut correctly, avoid drop frame and conversion issues, etc. I think that it is very rudimentary however. I am not an editor so I can't speak to that point of view, but as a director - I did not feel that the book taught me much of anything... and certainly nothing about integrating the three leading NLE systems.
I think the true niche for this book is beginning film school students, or people without a background in film editing at all. These people I believe would benefit highly. If you have worked exclusively with DV and video, and have no experience in film... then it would benefit you too.
Overally, I'm happy I read it, but I insist that if someone were trained already with a background in film, then this book will be too basic to be truly helpful.

Summary: A full meal, all on one plate
Comment: As a film editor, I couldn't appreciate this book more. It gives a thorough background and overview of the world of editing film digitally, and does so with a straighforward style that is easily accessible to newbies and professionals alike. Mr. Fowler shows us the differences between the major nonlinear editing systems, and leaves readers prepared to cut a film no matter what equipment or technical situations we may face. The book is a necessary reference tool for anyone wishing to edit a film in the ever-changing realm of post production.
