Trish and Chris Meyer run their own post-production company and contribute a regular column on After Effects to DV magazine. Creating Motion Graphics with After Effects is the culmination of their skills as digital filmmakers and as writers. It is a richly illustrated explanation of the inner workings of After Effects with practical techniques to get the best out of it. It includes topics such as animation, keyframes, layers, masks, mattes, keying, nestling compositions, type, audio and motion tracking. It also covers format issues for working with DV, NTSC, PAL, widescreen and film. If all of that isn't enough there are chapters on integrating Illustrator and PhotoShop files into your compositions, also the bundled CD-ROM is packed with extra tutorials and tips, sample files, demos and free plug-ins complementing and extending the book.
Although it opens with a chapter on the fundamentals of After Effects, Creating Motion Graphics is not really for beginners: it starts where the manual stops. After Effects comes in two versions: the standard package and the production bundle which includes an advanced toolkit for high-end video and film work. Since Creating Motion Graphics is aimed at amplifying the dexterity of professional users, some of the chapters involve the production bundle's tools. Still, any standard After Effects user will find more than enough in here to keep them busy. Creating Motion Graphics with After Effects proves Trish and Chris Meyer to be not only experts, but gurus. --John Cranmer
