Adobe Flash CS3 is the leading software for Web designers creating dynamic Web sites. Adobe Flash CS3 Professional Advanced for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickPro Guide offers the most efficient way for smart, creative, busy professionals to learn Flash. Updated to include the important new features in Flash CS3, this book covers the latest ActionScript standards that make Flash CS3 so powerful, and details the expanded support for rich media. This handy guide combines a visual approach with straightforward, step-by-step instructions and screenshots, concise explanations of animation techniques, and task-based learning. Taking the highly accessible instructional format of the popularVisual QuickStart Guides to a more advanced level, the book guides readers through all the intricacies and new features of this top-selling Web multimedia application.

Book News Annotation:

Written for designers, animators, and developers who have mastered basics of Flash, this tutorial gives step-by-step instructions for advanced techniques in animation, interactivity, transforming graphics and sound, and working with information, emphasizing how groups of techniques can be combined to solve a particular problem. Tasks build on each other, with simpler material progressing to more difficult. Tips in each task give hints about shortcuts, warnings about common mistakes, and suggestions for extending techniques, and sidebars discuss related matters. An accompanying web site provides Flash source files for tasks. Some basic familiarity with ActionScript is assumed. Chun teaches Flash and new media at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
