Some Great Video-related Content, Mostly a Sea of General Tips: 
Sorry, but as a professional photographer and someone who teaches Photoshop (as well as Premiere Pro), this book is really not what it's cracked up to be. Makes me wonder if some of the reviewers are acquainted with the author in some way. I don't think someone who is doing a lot of work with video frames in Photoshop Extended could read through this book and not realize it's 65% general Photoshop techniques (that you would find in a book about editing still images) and 35% video-centric information.

It has tutorials showing all common video uses from cutting out photos, lower thirds, backgrounds, creating elements for motion graphics programs like After Effects, uses of masks and alpha channels and the many ways you can create...more info
