Sep 2, 2013 4:01 PM in response to glennfromnicevilleby GFXZen,There are a number of resources. You might want to start with:
The User Manual:
http://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.0/en/motion/usermanual/
This Thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22833760#22833760
or just do a google search, that should bring up plenty of tutorials from around the web.
Cheers!

Sep 3, 2013 4:33 PM in response to GFXZenby glennfromniceville,Thank you for your response. I have done as you suggessted and find that all the tutorials that I find on line are for a specific action that assumes more knowledge of the software than I currently have or is so shallow that it is of no help. The manual for Motion 5 is very comprehensive technically, but does not provide a practical lesson oriented approach that allows one that has no previous knowledge of the software to pull the information together in a practical manner. I am not opposed to purchasing training if it is lesson oriented, but I have not found anything that professes to teach in that manner. Hopefully, someone out there will know of such a lesson plan that can benefit those of us that are rookies to Motion 5. Thanks again for your response.
