Adobe Flash Catalyst CS5 (Creative Studio 5)

Rapidly Create Engaging Flash Experiences, Without Code!

Adobe Flash Catalyst CS5 is a brand new tool in the Creative Suite, created to help designers rapidly create interactive experiences, in Flash, WITHOUT KNOWING ANY CODE. But, of course, Flash Catalyst is brand new -- many people don't even know what it is, much less how to use it.

In this course, across a series of two and a half hours and 21 lessons, Adobe Community Professional and Adobe Education Leader Tom Green walks students through the creation of an photo/video gallery, and in the process, Tom teaches all the key features and functions of Flash Catalyst -- how the interface works, how to import designs and media, and to round-trip your assets with your favorite design tools, creating symbols, timeline animation, and adding video playback and interactivity. Everything you need to dive in, get started, and learn to harness the amazing powers of this brand new tool.

With these skills, you will be creating engaging, powerful, interactive experiences from your designs in no time!
