DedicationsAs a veteran of several nonlinear editing systems, I have been a big supporter of this amazing program since discovering it shortly after its release. You'll find me regularly on the Premiere Elements's peer-to-peer users' forum, where it's been my privilege to share my experience, learn from others, and above all, enjoy the friendship and inspiration of my fellow video makers. I dedicate this book to them, as well as to dear Jeanne, who has so patiently lent her much-appreciated support throughout the writing of this book, and to the amazing Sarah, who made me believe a little girl could fly. Steve Grisetti This book is dedicated to my God and Savior; my wife, Criss; and my children, Heather, Britt, and Josh. Without your love, support, and sacrifice, none of this would have been possible. I humbly thank you all. Chuck Engels |
