Book Reviews of Flash CS3 Professional for Windows and Macintosh
Book Review: Another winning Visual Quickstart Guide
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed to create a complex scientific animation that overwhelmed PowerPoint's meager animation capabilities. I did not know anything about Flash. I have gotten great results with PeachPit's Visual Quickstart Guides for Photoshop and Illustrator in the past, so I took a chance and bought this one sight unseen. I was not dissappointed.
I read the first few chapters straight through, to get the gist of the program. Then I looked up individual sections I needed to get the job done. I took me a couple of days (and one late night) but I got the animation done. In the end there were more that 100 individual animated objects, each of which morphed in both shape and location. It was good enough to run continuously at a major trade show. I learned everything I needed to know from this book.
Like the other Visual QuickStart guides, this book covers individual common tasks in short chapters. These short, well-illustrated lessons tell you how to accomplish the task in clear language, with explanations of the different options and outcomes. I have no time to read an entire book to learn how to use a program. The "what you need to know to do accomplish this" approach used here works great for me.
If you need clear instructions on how to accomplish specific tasks in Flash, this is the book fr you. Highly recommended, no problems identified. Five stars.
