Flash has many strengths, but its top two have to be animation and interactivity. In this title I show how to tackle the former allowing you to create engaging, eye-catching animation. So whether you’re making a Flash banner, animated graphics for a site, or a full Flash site, this title is for you. And if you’re still using the classic tween in Flash then this is a perfect title to transition to the motion tween with ease. (Get it?)
