Résumé

Flash 5 is rapidly maturing into a professional animation, web site front-end and web application construction tool. Flash 5 builds on the strengths of Flash 4 by expanding ActionScript into an exponentially more powerful and flexible language, by adding Bezier tools, by including XML support, and by providing tools to smooth group workflow on larger-scale projects. Flash 5 is a professional tool with the power to change the way the web looks.

Who is this Book for?
Flash 5 Studio recognises that the reader is intelligent, web savvy and able to put things together for themselves. The book offers a wide-ranging set of professional tools and techniques that designers can apply to their own work and adopt to achieve professional results. The book assumes that you already know your way around Flash and that you want to develop the skills and practices to take you to the next level.

What does the Book cover?
This book shares the skills and knowledge of working Flash professionals with their peers. It assumes you already know the basics of Flash, and offers up a smorgasbord of techniques, processes and advice for moving your Flash movies up through the gears. Whether it's storyboarding, sophisticated animation techniques, ActionScript programming structures or XML, you'll find it all here.
