Bespoke Flash CC ActionScript 3 Day Introduction Overview
Adobe Flash CC is now a web standard and the only widely distributed technology for integrating vector graphics and animation into web sites. This combination of design and animation tools is complimented by a strong development environment that allows programmers to create highly interactive database driven technologies.
Adobe Flash CC sees the arrival of a host of exciting new features, including an improved script editor (with a visual interface); a revamped library interface; a new Undo feature; powerful run-time effects; and breakthrough motion-graphics capabilities to name but a few.
In this 3 day course for experienced users of Flash, we focus on the use and creation of Flash Action Scripts including animation with ActionScript.
By the end of this 3 day course you will have a good understanding of the core features and functions of ActionScript and will be able to implement it effectively yourself.
