It accomplishes this by taking students that have no computer design experience from simple commands to complete projects in this single-semester sized text. This well organized and progressive approach to learning AutoCAD sets this text apart from others. To support all users, this book covers AutoCAD for both Macs and PCs. The emphasis of this book is on easy to understand descriptions and instructions, allowing the non-technical, artistic, visual learning Interior Design student to quickly get past the fear of using the computer to produce drawings. The focus is entirely on the use of AutoCAD for the Interior Design field and not simply architectural drawings. Chapters alternate between command descriptions, which are organized by a command set category, and tutorials. This allows students to easily refer back to command descriptions without hunting through a tutorial that introduces commands as it progresses. The emphasis is on the practical use of commands using the AutoCAD ribbon workspace, rather than the multiple (and seldom used) command options. Multiple tutorials of the hotel suite, which include floor plan, elevation views, dimensioning, and plotting, provide a practical application of the commands learned in the preceding chapters. Completely dimensioned drawings are provided at the beginning of each tutorial so that the advanced student, or an instructor led class, can complete them without going through the step-by-step process. This textbook is classroom proven, and relevant interior design homework problems are provided. After completing this book, the student will be able to create all their 2-D Interior Design work using Autodesk AutoCAD.

Autodesk Inventor 2026 - L. Scott Hansen Ph.D. Cover Art

Autodesk Inventor 2026

Autodesk Inventor 2026 A Tutorial Introduction by L. Scott Hansen Ph.D.

• Designed for anyone who wants to learn Autodesk Inventor • Absolutely no previous experience with CAD is required • Uses a learn by doing approach • Starts at a basic level and guides you to an advanced user level This unique text presents a thorough introduction to Autodesk Inventor for anyone with little or no prior experience with CAD software. It can be used in virtually any setting from four year engineering schools to on-the-job use or self-study. Unlike other books of its kind, it begins at a very basic level and ends at a very advanced level. It’s perfect for anyone interested in learning Autodesk Inventor quickly and effectively using a “learning by doing” approach. The philosophy behind this book is that learning computer aided design programs is best accomplished by emphasizing the application of the tools. Students also seem to learn more quickly and retain information and skills better if they are actually creating something with the software program. The driving force behind this book is “learning by doing.” The instructional format of this book centers on making sure that students learn by doing and that students can learn from this book on their own. In fact, this is one thing that differentiates this book from others: the emphasis on being able to use the book for self-study. The presentation of Autodesk Inventor is structured so that no previous knowledge of any CAD program is required. This book uses the philosophy that Inventor is mastered best by concentrating on applying the program to create different types of solid models, starting simply and then using the power of the program to progressively create more complex solid models. The Drawing Activities at the end of each chapter are more complex iterations of the part developed by each chapter’s objectives. Since CAD programs are highly visual, there are graphical illustrations showing how to use the program. This reinforces the “learn by doing” philosophy since a student can see exactly what the program shows, and then step through progressive commands to implement the required operations. Rather than using a verbal description of the command, a screen capture of each command is replicated. Table of Contents 1.   Getting Started 2.   Learning More Basics 3.   Learning to Create a Detail Drawing 4.   Advanced Detail Drawing Procedures 5.   Learning to Edit Existing Solid Models 6.   Designing Part Models for Assembly 7.   Introduction to Assembly View Procedures 8.   Introduction to the Presentation Panel 9.   Introduction to Advanced Commands 10.

Cinematic Immersive For Professionals - Ben Allan ACS CSI & Clara Chong Cover Art

Cinematic Immersive For Professionals

Cinematic Immersive For Professionals The Creative and Technical Guide to Planning and Filming for the Apple Immersive Video format by Ben Allan ACS CSI & Clara Chong

The first comprehensive guide to the creative and technical grammar of Apple Immersive Video (AIV) written by the filmmakers pioneering the format: Ben Allan ACS CSI and Clara Chong. This book draws on their three decades of hands-on production experience, and brings together original research, extensive testing with the Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive and DaVinci Resolve Studio, and translates these complex principles into practical creative approaches. Apple Immersive Video represents one of the most significant new opportunities in cinematic storytelling since the arrival of sound, color and widescreen. This new medium requires a new creative grammar, adapted production methods and a deep understanding of human perception. From proximity and gaze to Apple Spatial Audio sound design, this book explores how traditional filmmaking principles evolve when the frame disappears an the viewer steps into the story. Apple Immersive does’t replace traditional formats, it's another storytelling tool, like choosing between Scope or Academy or IMAX, and will suit some stories and styles more than others. With Apple Immersive, the creative limits aren’t so much technical, they’re more biological. This is not a manual written from the outside. It is more of a field guide written from the frontier of this new format. Cinematic Immersive For Professionals is the essential reference for filmmakers, studios, educators, and creators planning and shooting for Apple Immersive Video at a professional level. * Authors Note: This book was written by us, based on our extensive research and testing. A.I. tools have been used to make some sections more concise and to improve the readability of some complex concepts. A.I. generated images have also been used to illustrate some frameworks, but unaltered real photographs have been prioritised wherever possible.

"Improve Your Photography" has been purchased by thousands of beginning photographers across the world and has been recently updated in this second edition.

If I would have had this book when I started, I would have been two years ahead of everyone else in just 100 pages." The book covers topics such as tips for taking better portraits of people, instruction on choosing lenses, tips for landscape and sunset photography, and HDR.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC Book for Digital Photographers, The by Scott Kelby

Since Lightroom 1.0 first launched, Scott’s Kelby’s The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Book for Digital Photographers has been the world’s #1 bestselling Lightroom book (it has been translated into a dozen different languages), and in this latest version for Lightroom 6, Scott uses his same award-winning, step-by-step, plain-English style and layout to make learning Lightroom easy and fun. Scott doesn’t just show you which sliders do what (every Lightroom book will do that). Instead, by using the following three simple, yet brilliant, techniques that make it just an incredible learning tool, this book shows you how to create your own photography workflow using Lightroom: • Throughout the book, Scott shares his own personal settings and studio-tested techniques. Each year he trains thousands of Lightroom users at his live seminars and through that he’s learned what really works, what doesn’t, and he tells you flat out which techniques work best, which to avoid, and why. • The entire book is laid out in a real workflow order with everything step by step, so you can begin using Lightroom like a pro from the start. • What really sets this book apart is the last chapter. This is where Scott dramatically answers his #1 most-asked Lightroom question, which is: “Exactly what order am I supposed to do things in, and where does Photoshop fit in?” You’ll see Scott’s entire start-to-finish Lightroom 6 workflow and learn how to incorporate it into your own workflow. • Plus, this book includes a downloadable collection of some of the hottest Lightroom Develop module presets to give you a bunch of amazing effects with just one click! Scott knows firsthand the challenges today’s digital photographers are facing, and what they want to learn next to make their workflow faster, easier, and more fun. He has incorporated all of that into this major update for Lightroom 6. It’s the first and only book to bring the whole process together in such a clear, concise, and visual way. Plus, the book includes a special chapter on integrating Adobe Photoshop seamlessly right into your workflow, and you’ll learn some of Scott’s latest Photoshop portrait retouching techniques and special effects, which take this book to a whole new level. There is no faster, more straight to the point, or more fun way to learn Lightroom than with this groundbreaking book.

Mastering Apple Music - The Ultimate iTunes User Guide

Mastering Apple Music - The Ultimate iTunes User Guide by Adidas Wilson

Apple Music is, to quote the company, "All the ways you love music. All in one place." In non-marketing lingo, Apple Music is built around two major components: iCloud Music Library, which combines your purchased music library and ripped tracks in one place; and the Apple Music streaming catalog, where you can find more than 10 million tracks from artists around the world. These two parts live side by side in the Music app: You can keep each separate by only streaming the Apple Music catalog, or you can add streaming songs to your offline Music library, where they can be mixed into playlists (offline or publicly shareable) or shuffled amongst the rest of your music. Apple Music also offers a massive recommendation and browsing area for its streaming catalog: As you listen to songs in the Music app, Apple collects data about your tastes and drops daily custom-curated playlists in the app for you to listen to, along with a weekly algorithmic "New Music" mix that suggests songs and artists you might like. You can also poke around the entire streaming catalog's array of new music, curated playlists, music videos, and more. Lastly, Apple Music includes a live, 24/7 radio station called Beats 1: It's only available to paying subscribers and features three main DJs along with a panoply of specialty shows from artists like Dr Dre, Elton John, Ryan Adams, Frank Ocean, Major Lazer, and Anna Lunoe.

Logic Pro X - The Details - Edgar Rothermich Cover Art

Logic Pro X - The Details

Logic Pro X - The Details A New Type of Manual - The Visual Approach by Edgar Rothermich

Logic Pro X - The Details "  is the follow-up book of " Logic Pro X - How It Works ". It explains all the remaining features in Logic Pro X with the same style by using rich illustrations and diagrams that are not found in any other manual. This is the first time that even beginners and intermediate Logic users can explore the more advanced features in Logic due to that easy to understand, visual approach of this manual. The Logic books in the "Graphically Enhanced Manuals (GEM)" series are the only ones available as interactive multi-touch eBooks. On 1527 pages, the author explains the app in great detail with additional background information that is often required to fully understand specific features.  Many of the information regarding the functionality of Logic Pro X is found neither in the official documentation nor anywhere else. Logic Pro X is a very deep and sometimes complex application that users (beginners and pros alike) often struggle with. This is where the unique approach of the Graphically Enhanced Manuals series comes in. No matter how complex or complicated the subject is, the author provides easy to understand graphics and diagrams that let the reader understand and master the material. This interactive multi-touch eBook includes a 600 term Glossary that is linked throughout the content of the book. Table of Contents: 1 - Introduction :  2 - Workflow : The most important and most underrated topic when using Logic is how to use it efficiently.  That's why I start the book with that chapter.  3 - Advanced Editing : To really become a Logic "Pro-user", you need all the available editing tools on your Logic tool belt.  4 - Flex Introduction : Finally, Audio Regions have the same freedom when it comes to editing as their MIDI Region counterparts.  5 - Flex Time : No time restrictions for Audio Regions anymore. No matter what tempo an audio file was recorded in, you can change it and even quantize it.  6 - Flex Pitch : If you ever wanted to change the pitch information in Audio Regions but couldn't afford the Melodyne app or couldn't (under-)stand it, then Logic has the easiest to use tool for you.  7 - Browsers : The three Browsers in Logic don't get the same respect from their users. Either they frown upon Apple Loops or don't know what to do with the Media Browser in the first - now you will.  8 - Audio File Management : The problem with having a lot of stuff is how to manage that stuff. This is also true for all the Logic related files. You better learn how to manage them before you start to lose them.  9 - Advanced Audio : There is much more to Audio in Logic that meets the eyes. I dive into all those pro features Logic has to offer to show you what is going on under the hood.  10 - Advanced MIDI : You can also advance your knowledge about the MIDI features in Logic, in addition to its audio features.  11 - Automation : Automation is such big topic, I had to split it into two chapters. The first part covers Track Automation, the main automation mode that gets you started.  12 - Automation (advanced) : There is Track Automation, Region Automation, MIDI Draw, Trim Mode, Absolute Mode, Relative Mode, to name just a few. Ready to become an expert on all of that?  13 - Music Notation : There are applications just for music notation. With Logic, that is included. No matter if you want to print out a single melody or an entire orchestral score - you can do it.  14 - Tempo & Time : Tempo and Time seems to be easy topics on the outside. But be warned, this chapter goes deep, where no other manual has gone before.  15 - Working to Picture : Logic is the best and most popular DAW when it comes to scoring to picture. Learn all the stuff you need to know - to do exactly that.  16 - Synchronization : If you made it through the Tempo & Time chapter, then this one is the right chapter for you with lots of information beyond Logic.  17 - The Environment : The scariest place in Logic, sending shivers down the spine of most Logic users - unless you know your way around ... then all of a sudden it becomes the most powerful place in Logic.  18 - Surround Sound : If two speakers are not enough to do your Project good, then it's time to move up to the world of Surround Sound.  19 - Control Surfaces : Logic will also surrender to outside powers. Learn how to use and setup those devices, no matter if it is just a single Mod Wheel or a fully equipped Control Surface.  19 - Gobbler and Connect : This is not a new cop show on CBS. Starting with version 10.2, Logic has integrated support for Gobbler and Apple Music Connect, two services that let you collaborate with other Logic users and share your work with others. This is the 10th book in the bestselling series "Graphically Enhanced Manuals". Readers love this unique way of leaning applications no matter how easy or complicated the app might be. Here are some responses from satisfied customers: "I wish all the manuals on software were like yours!" - Giovanni C. "You have the gift of making difficult concepts understandable" - William B. "Your style is the most informative and clear I have ever seen" - Mark D. "Great stuff Edgar!
