It may seem paradoxical to gather in the title the words of pro and amateur. And yet, those are 100 special effects techniques that are presented in this book. The techniques are both focused on physical effects (rain, bleeding wound) and digital (laser, UFO, ...). The screenshots are from Final Cut Pro.
While some techniques require a certain amount of equipment to be implemented, others simple, are within reach of any amateur videographer.
Book to recommend to all those who feel the soul of a Peter Jackson!
