内容説明
Put the power of Expressions to work in your animations with controls and efficiencies impossible to achieve with traditional keyframing techniques.
No programming skills are required. Foundation concepts and skills orient the new designer and serve as a handy reference to the experienced one. Basics of creating Expressions, variables, commands, and Expression helpers precede the leap into JavaScript and math essentials for more advanced Expressions that include randomness and physical simulations.
Full color illustrations display the scripts and the resulting effects, Pick Whip techniques, and sequential animations. Downloadable companion files include QuickTime movies of the demo animations, and AE project files that permit you to examine the Expressions.
* No programming experience required.
* Full-color presentation of Pick Whip techniques and sequential animations.
* Downloadable project files and QuickTime videos.

やはり英語が、、ｗｗ
けど結構役に立つ本だと思います。

エクスプレッションを詳しく扱っている日本語の参考書は見かけた事がなく、ウェブサイトのエクスプレッション機能の解説は断片的で、自分にはかなり難易度が高すぎ、、、。
というわけで、数字が苦手でJavaScriptなど全く知らない状態の中、この本に臨みました。
第一章と第二章に分かれていて、第一章はPickWhipのリンクを中心とした基本的なエクスプレッションの解説。
第二章は、第一章で学んだ知識をベースにしてもう少し難易度の高い内容。
細かいところまで丁寧に解説されていてわかりやすいです。
はじめは簡単なサンプルから、次第にそれに肉付けしていって最終的には割と複雑なエクスプレッションも理解できるように、、、と、そんな感じの流れで解説してくれています。
英語もかなり易しい方だと思います。
サッパリ理解できなくて多少飛ばしたところもありますが、全体的にはかなり懇切丁寧に解説されてあって、読み進むにつれて、わかった気にさせてくれるところがとても良かったです。
ただ、ひとつのやり方の説明に対して例文が少ないので、応用を利かせて自作していくには、この本だけでは足りないと思います。
この本で学んだ事を足がかりに、色々なエクスプレッションを試して、試行錯誤を繰り返しながら経験積まなくてはいけなさそうです。
やっとスタートラインに立った、って感じです。

Perfect for all sorts of newbies
2009/2/3
形式:ペーパーバック
I approached this book as one kind of newbie -- a web designer/programmer who is proficient at javascript and other scripting languages, but with little experience in After Effects. So, while I was comfortable with the scripting elements of the book, I appreciated the fact that various users of After Effects will arrive from any number of different backgrounds, and the effort taken to not scare off visual designers with lots of unfamiliar math and programming language were not a problem for me. Expressions is a clever pun of Adobe's in a way, using a word that we might take to mean "artistic expression" to fuel an approach to entering mathematical expressions, for underlying these dazzling effects is math. For those of us who are programmers, of course, the ability that Expressions gives to get to the actual math and javascript is a plus that increases our comfort level with our goals for the finished product.
This book does a good job of easing the burden of the math/programming for those who aren't at their most comfortable with these things, and does an equally good job of taking someone like myself, who is likely to be involved more in the programming side of a project while working with a designer, to become familiar with the parameters used by Expressions. This acknowledges, in my mind, that there are various of us in the food chain of producing content that may have to learn to touch a wide array of different programs (for instance, I had rarely used Adobe Premiere before last year, and it was one of my most-used programs in 2008 because of web projects that were heavy on video). That's why I think it is important for a book of this kind to be able to welcome various kinds of newbies... folks who may all be newbies in different ways.
I had no problem, by the way, using the sample files on a PC, so perhaps this problem was fixed since the time another reviewer reported problems.
Within just a few minutes, I was able to alter Expressions commands in After Effects, and, thanks to this book, had a sense of how the parameters I was altering were creating the changed results.
The format of this book was very easy to follow, and the illustrations were of superb quality. In a few cases, it made all the difference to know what I was looking for in the visual sense, by seeing the high-quality color rendering that the book provided.
This book really solves a problem for me, that I increasingly face in my responsibilities with content production problems, which is the need to get up to speed quickly and specifically on an application (or, in this case, a portion of an application) utilized in a project in which I work with others. I now have a much greater level of confidence in being able to dig in to After Effects, and use the power Expressions as an aid to creating the desired results.

Good book, but downloading files is painfully slow

The book is great so far. But the publisher did something incredibly stupid. They don't include a CD for the example files so you have to download them. But on their download website they don't provide a way of downloading everything all at once, or even one chapter at a time. You have to download EVERY SINGLE FILE separately! There are over 100 files. It's going to take me hours for something that should take one minute.

FINALLY! A book on After Effects expressions that speaks to EVERYONE! I myself am a published After Effects author and lecturer, but I have a dirty little secret: I suck at expressions. Badly. I fear them. I loathe them. And in all of the great forums, books, and training I've encountered, I've never found anyone able to speak at my level without being condescending, or assuming too much.
Marcus Geduld is totally the right guy for the job, as anyone familiar with the After Effects community can tell you. He's just amazing. His ability to make difficult concepts easy to grasp is second to none, in my opinion. I saw him speak at an After Effects certification seminar at NAB in Vegas a few years ago, and he spoke about AE preferences for an hour and I was on the edge of my seat like I was watching an episode of Lost or something!
I finally "get" expressions now. It will be hours of practice before I feel really comfortable using them. But the nightmares about a huge "if/then" statement coming in the night and eating me have finally stopped.
P.S. Did I mention that this book is hilarious? Well, it is. If you were like me and wondering if it would be a boring read, then you don't know Marcus Geduld! I think I had a laugh and an "a ha" moment on every page...
