Flash MX 2004 for Web developers and designers.
Writing for a wide audience of potential users, including readers with or without programming experience as well as web designers who want a hands-on tutorial, McCloud makes this reference appropriate for courses for non majors in computer science or media studies departments, as well as for courses where art and computer use come together. Modifying and predeveloping art objects, designing interactive games, using sound, and understanding the fundamentals of animation are covered in step-by-step instructions and illustrated with screen captures. Each chapter concludes with a summary and questions. (Annotation ©2007 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
