Description
Flash is one of the most engaging and innovative, and versatile technologies available - allowing the creation of pretty much anything from simple slideshows, animated banners and icons and cartoons, to Rich Internet Applications, Interactive videos, and dynamic user interfaces for web sites, kiosks, or DVDs. The possibilities are endless, except that now, it just got better.

Like before, Flash offers full ActionScript 3.0 support, a PSD and AI importer, Tweening, animation, etc. In this course you'll learn Flash CS5.5 from the ground up.
