Bonjour, je maitrise bien cette partie de la music, ( dommage que Proshow n'a pas une 2-ème piste pour la voix off ) mais j'ai vus que vous avez quelques astuces, je suis satisfait, merci.

Clear instructions on how to deal with many elements of designing shows from the very basic like red-eye to the more advanced like designing multi-page DVD menus. Well done.

Because i am learning new things to use and the explanations are so clear. I learn heaps from all of her UDEMY lessons. The Udemy method of being able to stop /review/practice on her lessons is a necessary method for me to learn and comprehend what is being taught Thank you

I learned so much. Thank goodness for the pause button, though, so I could practice more before going to the next lesson. Thank you, Jennifer!

Lovely clear instructions as always. I found the Output session on menu's too complicated. I'm a great believer in simplicity and it was too much for me to take in. Otherwise, interesting and worthwhile course.
