Digital Video Hacks Cover Shot is an incredibly fun and useful book. Think of it as a Video Tips book, with tips ranging from the simple like preparing to shoot video, to lighting and special effects to editing and audio and more.

The “tips” as I call them are usually short and all of them are easy to read and understand and all of them are useful no matter what level a videographer you are. There are lots of examples, screen shots, tips, notes and more that really make using and understanding what’s being talked about easy and I dare say even fun.

In total there are 100 great tips in 8 chapters/categories. Categories include:

1. Prepare
2. Light
3. Acquire
4. Edit
5. Audio
6. Effects
7. Distribute
8. Random Fun
