Product Description
Adobe Flash CS3 Professional Hands-On Training is the latest, updated version of the highly acclaimed publication from the leaders in training at lynda.com. In this book, readers will find carefully developed lessons and exercises that teach readers to create interactive Web sites and rich media, with the latest version of the Flash authoring tool. Given the extensive changes to the Flash interface and function, the step-by-step approach is much needed to help present things to a beginner in a very clear, easy-to-follow way. In it, they ll learn how to use the full set of creative drawing, animation, and interactive tools including drawing and color tools, animation basics, symbols and instances, motion, bitmaps, buttons, movie clips, sound, components and forms, and video. Not only that but readers will learn how to use the new powerful integration features with Photoshop and Illustrator and discover new Shape Primitives (expanding your ability to use and manipulate shapes), a new Pen tool that functions like that found in Illustrator, a new ability to convert animations to ActionScript 3, a brand new unified interface matching that of others in the Creative Suite, and much more. Accompanied by a CD-ROM loaded with classroom-proven exercises and QuickTime training videos, this book ensures ensures readers will master the key features of Adobe Flash CS3 in no time.

4 out of 5 stars Adobe Flash CS3 Professional by Todd Perkins   October 5, 2008
This book offeres all the step by step instructions which i found very helpful for doing home works. I got pleasure for discovering a mis-step or two in the instructions. When I got stuck, that's when i really going extra hard to go back and forth to pull my self out of a jam, and I learned more in doing so.


5 out of 5 stars Step By Step Rewards   September 21, 2008
As a teacher in Multimedia/Art at Ventura College, CA, I review and use many books as reference. Flash CS3 Professional by Todd Perkins is a step by step tutorial to a total creation ending. The fact that this "Hands on Training" under the auspices of lynda.com/ Peachpit Press is accompanied by lynda.com training videos, makes a coordinated package for the individual learner or a classroom environment. Each chapter is illustrated with examples and tips, a valuable reference for Flash enthusiasts, animators and web developers alike. Too bad the books fall apart!


4 out of 5 stars product review   September 19, 2008
Required text for a class. It is OK so far for the most part I guess. This is a totally new subject for me so I dont know what to compare it with. It is similar to other tutorial books I have used. What I find exasperating about this book is the author constantly telling you "...you will learn more about that in chapter XX..." or "...more about that later..." It isnt like it happens once in a while it is like several times on every page. Now that I am into chapter 8, the author has added "...you learned about that in chapter 4..." or "chapter 6" or... What keeps me going and not throwing the book across the room and dropping the class is that the subject matter is quite fascinating.
