Synopsis:

The definitive iLife reference, completely updated and revised.

Synopsis:

Thanks to Apple's uniquely integrated creative tools, millions of Macintosh users view their Macs as the hub of a digital lifestyle where music, movies, digital photos, CDs, and DVDs converge. They use iTunes to organize their digital music libraries to play on their iPods; iMovie to edit, title, and produce effects for their own movies; iPhoto to enhance, organize, and share their photography; iDVD to create interactive DVDs; GarageBand to create their own digital music (even non-musicians); and iWeb to share their photos, movies, podcasts and blogs on the Web. But the real power comes when they begin to put the various media together. In The Macintosh iLife '08, longtime digital media guru Jim Heid makes the most of iLife '08 by delivering a highly interactive, enaging learning experience. This book is beautiflly illustrated and contains tips, and project ideas, that readers can turn to for all things iLife '08. The updated coverage includes the latest products in iLife '08 (now available for $79): iDVD, iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, .Mac Web Gallery, and iWeb. These amazing applications bring out the creative spirit in everyone.
