Macromedia Flash Training
| Customer Rating: | | This is an excellent book for those who don't know much about Flash and even for those who are veterans. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to increase their Flash skills. |
Learn Flash Professional 8
| Customer Rating:  | I really like this book because it builds on concepts by working through lessons and exercises. You actually create the Flash objects as you go along...there is also companion videos that reinforce the concepts at the end of most chapters, showing you the process again.
Nicely laid out and makes it easy to learn.
If you "learn by doing" this is a great book to get you there... |
Great book, you'll learn a lot
| Customer Rating: | After completing most of the chapters I can say that the Hands on Training is really good. There were only one or two instances where the directions could have been written better, and even then I easily figured out what the author was talking about.
From this book I learned how to:
Draw shapes
Make a shape tween
Make a motion tween
Make an animated symbol
Use different aspects of the timeline
Change the document properties and publish my files to include in Dreamweaver
Draw using frame-by-frame animation
Use symbols and instances
and other things too small to mention
I'd also recommend the Dreamweaver 8 Hands on Training book, it's just as good. |
Great read for a beginner!
| Customer Rating: | | I'm a beginner. I've been looking for a book about Flash that can give me a solid start and understanding of the program. This is the best book I've read about Flash so far.I've read about 7 on this topic but this one is the best. I recommend it to anyone who wants to get a good grasp on the program before moves on. |
Good for a beginner
| Customer Rating: | | I'm always apprehensive about purchasing tech books so I normally go to the library and check them out for a few days before the purchase. With this book I didn't do that and I must say I am pleasantly surprised. The exercises are interesting and easy to follow. The tutorial CD is also quite good. |
