Need a powerful Mac software tool to accomplish a project or improve your productivity, but have hesitated because the size of the manual scared you, or you didn’t know who to turn to when you had questions? Excellent video training tools are now available from a reliable company at very reasonable prices to help you learn quickly and effectively.
macProVideo.com specializes in a cool interface called the Nonlinear Educating Device (N.E.D. for short) which is a friendly tutorial video player that really improves the learning experience. Audiovisual teaching is taken serious by this company, starting with all of their instructions on their website which uses efficient QuickTime movies for ease of learning. N.E.D. features a revolutionary integrated download manager that incrementally and progressively downloads your tutorial videos. Start watching tutorials immediately while the rest download in the background. N.E.D. will scale to display video of any resolution. Currently, all macProVideo.com tutorials are 1024 X 768 pixels. That's high quality, High Definition video ... N.E.D. lets you see and hear how software works, with industry-leading quality!
Getting started is really easy . . . just pick your desired tutorial, click on download to add it to your list (below left), then click on the title to begin watching on the video (below right). This is not about “talking heads”, but rather high-quality screen examples with a strong reassuring voice fluidly cruising through each bit-sized segment . . . easy to review or jump ahead, as needed.
Professional tutors present informative videos for the Mac OS, GarageBand, iMovie, iDVD, Photoshop, Final Cut, Logic, Motion, DVD Studio Pro, Pro Tools, Aperture, Word, and many others, with new titles being added every month. A visit to www.macprovideo.com will provide a thorough explanation of this service with the ability to download N.E.D. for free, and even get free tutorials to try out. But, they don’t stop with the video, macProVideo.com extends their service further by providiing individual forums for each of their software series, allowing users to query tutors and exchange information with other users. This makes for a more complete learning experience.
I recently conducted a great interview with Martin Stiller, the owner, CEO and director of macProVideo.com (available at http://web.mac.com/ugab/). He explained in detail how meticulous his tutor selection process is and how careful they are about the production process. He is also an obvious supporter of Mac user groups.with his offer to support user groups with free tutorials and assistance for our meetings. In addition, he is now offering a special discount (see below) on his already low retail prices ranging from $19.50 - $49.50 (custom bundles also have additional discounts of 15-25% based on number of tutorials ordered). And their videos are all fully downloadable, regardless of your Internet speed.
Based on what I’ve seen, heard and experienced, this is a quality company with excellent products, great prices and a true service attitude. They have earned my endorsement.
