Excellent!

As a person brand new to Apple products, this was a great way to learn about iPhoto. I was hoping to get in to the store for One on One training, but this has to be so much better! I was able to learn in the comfort of my own home, stop and start as needed, and even have the option of typing notes along the side of each lesson. Anyone that hasn't learned to use iPhoto yet should take the time and watch this course. I can't wait to get started organizing all of my favorite photos. I LOVED that it showed me how to import all of my photos from Facebook too. I have been posting my favorite photos for years to Facebook. I was able to retreive all of them last night and put them into my library on my MacBook :)

Also, the person that taught the course was very professional and pleasant to listen to. The volume of his voice was perfect and his pictures were so beautiful to look at that it made watching even more fun.

Outstanding!

I found this to be an outstanding introduction to iPhoto '11. I actually bought and watched Learn iPhoto '11 first, and based on what I saw, I was encouraged to go ahead and buy iPhoto '11.

The course is organized around the three main themes of how to organize, edit, and share your photos. There are approximately 20 individual videos averaging perhaps 5-6 minutes each. Each video is very focused on one or a few features of iPhoto, and illustrates very slowly and methodically how to use those features. I enjoyed the lack of hyperbole; the videos are simply a clear and straightforward explanation. Collectively, they'll save a ton of time in coming up to speed on using iPhoto. This is a tremendous value for the price.

Best Beginner to Pro Guide

I took a class at an Apple Store and was sorely disappointed...I was ready to abandon IPhoto. I knew the program was powerful, but I did not find it intuitive. However, this tutorial saved my sanity and gave me an outlet for my creativity. It moved at a good pace, giving me so much information but in bite size chunks so that I could process, practice and, some day, perfect. Thank you!
