Hi, everyone.
I've just become a Creative Cloud subscriber. I used Final Cut Pro from versions 3 to 7, and also used Premiere Pro 1 along the way. I want to learn Premiere CS6 and After Effects. I've never properly learned Photoshop so I wouldn't mind dabbling in that as well if it's possible. I've always been the type who learns best from books rather than videos etc. I want technical and thorough explanations, nothing dumbed-down.
The Adobe website and Google are giving me bits and pieces instead of something holistic, structured and complete. I guess it's partly because CS6 is so new. I'm tempted by the ... classroom in a book series, since they were written by Adobe.
Are After Effects/Premiere/Photoshop sufficiently similar to CS5 that I can learn from a CS5 reference? And if so, what books would you recommend?
