A friend told me about Lynda.com, and although I haven’t yet subscribed to it, I am seriously considering plonking down the cash for the Final Cut class. Just wanted to bring it to your attention!
Visual Research Methods: Creating Visual Narratives

Hmm. Looks interesting. Has your friend used it?
The Final Cut Pro tutorial here looks pretty good, too.

My friend has a subscription (which he shares with his wife and two friends), and he says all the lynda.com videos he has used are quite good. The other tutorial you posted looks like the kind of step-by-step guide that works best for me — thanks for posting!
