Frustrated by the overwhelming nature of Flash? Want to get up to speed with the

program fast so you can concentrate on your animation? Need to solve problems

quickly to get work done to time and to budget? Then 'How to Cheat in Flash' is

for you! This book is different from the rest because it shows you, step by

step, how to work from the problem to the solution when creating Flash

animations, from the viewpoint of an animator who has been commissioned to

create a job and is working to a deadline. It is task orientated; every example

shows real life commercial work. So, it's not so much a case of 'what does this

filter/tool/option do?', as 'this is the task I've been set - how do I achieve

it?' The solution may involve a variety of tools and techniques; it may take

many steps to complete, or only a few. The free CD-Rom includes all the files

you need to put your skills into practice as you read, and much more! It's an

accessible (conversational in style), practical book and CD package which also

provides artistic inspiration, a goldmine of timesaving practical tips, tricks

and step-by-step workthroughs. You will wonder how you survived without it.
