This video was OK, and i did learn from it somewhat, but it is a little cheaply produced. But wait,is that what we’re all trying to do anyway?
I don’t know, maybe I was expecting more upscale movie editing, but it is really just a made-at-home video program with examples from cheaply shot video. What I’m trying to say is that it IS helpful, but not a highly polished operation.

I bought Pinnacle Studio 12 (trying to save money, didn’t know better) and struggled with it. It’s ok for beginners but I needed to do more – work in HD, burn professional looking DVD’s for sale, create a worthy tutorial.
I did a lot of online shopping around and found Bill’s channel on YouTube and watched a few videos and joined 2 video editing groups on Yahoo-groups. The consensus was Sony Vegas, Movie Studio or Pro, was best and after watch the vids on YT, I ordered the software and this DVD, which I watched most of today.
I’d say it’s worth as much or more than the software!! Yes, you do need a basic understanding of the screen and a few terms, and yes he talks faster than I do, but it’s a DVD! You can watch it over and over! I learned more in 2 hours than I have in 3 months with Pinnacle!
This DVD teaches *exactly* what it says it does – how to create your own “how-to” DVD with Sony Vegas Movie Studio. It’s going to save me hundreds of hours of struggling and hopefully help me make buckets of money with my own DVD’s!!
Wonderfully put together, personable guy, easy to follow if you have used ANY video editing software at all. And really, all you need to do is follow the tutorial that comes with the software to learn the basics, then watch the DVD for the powerhouse of fast-forward learning. If I could, I would give this TEN stars.

Everything in this DVD can be found on YouTube with the exception of some lower thirds. It’s a good DVD but you can save money by using the net.

I’ve picked up quite a few of Bill’s DVD’s over the past year or so and this is one of the most valuable products in the bunch because this DVD showed me everything I needed to know in order to create my own how-to DVDs using Sony Movie Studio.
Sony Movie Studio can be a pretty overwhelming program at first glance, with all the windows, sliders, buttons and so on. But Bill clears through all the noise and shows you exactly what you need to know to create a simple how-to DVD for any topic you can think of.
Keep in mind that this isn’t some generic “how to use Sony Movie Studio” tutorial and isn’t intended to show you every bell and whistle that this powerful software tool has to offer. Instead, it’s focused primarily on those buyers that are interested in creating how-to and special interest DVDs. So if you’re a budding movie maker, this will get you the basics but might not cover some of the special features or techniques you might be looking for.
However, Bill’s goal is to show customers how to use these types of software tools and a little creativity to create a “lifestyle business”, not how to become a pro videographer.
If you’ve never taken advantage of any of Bill’s products, you’ll enjoy his down-to-earth, “regular guy” approach to business, video, and other technical matters…he has a knack for taking complex subjects and breaking them down into the “here’s what you need to know” pieces in a practical and hype-free way.
Be sure to check out his Youtube videos to get a feel for what this DVD is like and stop by the companion website too…more great ways to expand on what you’ll learn in this DVD. Thanks Bill!

Best tutorial video I’ve ever watched. As I am running two differant nlv editing programs on separate computors I found it useful for both Sony & Magix software.
