The 10 project-based lessons in this text show students how to create engaging interactive content with Flash Professional CC (2014 Release). Using step-by-step instructions with projects that build on the knowledge gained in each lesson, students learn the key elements of the Flash interface, including panels, timelines, and frames. From there, students learn how to work with graphics, create and edit symbols, modify text, add interactivity with ActionScript, and incorporate animation and sound into their projects. They also learn how to prepare and export their finished projects for publishing. This new edition covers innovations in the 2014 Release of Flash Professional CC, including more expressive tools, powerful controls for animation, and robust support for a wider variety of playback platforms. Also covered is the all-new Variable Width tool, which allows students to control the thick-and-thin outlines of their illustrations for more creative graphics and animations. For more advanced control over complex animations, this release integrates a new Motion Editor panel. The Motion Editor panel lets them see how the properties of their animation change over time as curves on a graph. They can change each property independently with Bezier precision, making complicated animations fast and easy. Support for SVG export, WebGL publishing, Macintosh and Windows Projectors, and easy-to-use JavaScript code snippets for HTML5 Canvas projects make Flash the ideal development environment for creative animation and multimedia.   The full text downloaded to your computer With eBooks you can: search for key concepts, words and phrases make highlights and notes as you study share your notes with friends eBooks are downloaded to your computer and accessible either offline through the Bookshelf (available as a free download), available online and also via the iPad and Android apps.
