This is a book by Kevin Monahan. This book is about making video effects right inside of Final Cut Pro. The exercises and methodology works great with any version of Final Cut Pro, including FCP 7.

Here's a book I contributed a lot to, "Edit Well: Final Cut Studio Techniques from the Pros". You'll find a bunch of cool video effects techniques with the articles I wrote. Hope you enjoy it.

Norman Hollyn's cool book about creating compelling stories. Highly recommended!

The definitive book about the craft of editing.

Walter Murch behind the scenes of editing "Cold Mountain" using Final Cut Pro. Charles Koppelman also worked on my book, "Motion Graphics and Effects in Final Cut Pro".

Another great book featuring the work of Walter Murch.

If you are a beginner with Final Cut Pro, you can't go wrong with this book. Lisa Brenneis is great at simplifying difficult concepts. Check it out.
