Accessible in tone yet exhaustive in scope, the first edition of Director Demystified quickly became a "standard reference" after its publication last year. Now with the debut of Director 5 comes a new edition, incoporating all of the features of the new software version as well as additional behind-the-scenes information and hands-on tutorials. Director 5 Demystified, 2nd Edition uses real-world projects to make the program's array of features easy to understand, walking readers through interactive presentations that can be easily modified for use in actual projects. Each project can be assembled using graphics, sounds and text included on the accompanying CD-ROM. An appendix includes complete documentation on Lingo, Director's powerful scripting language. The book also addresses key multimedia design and organization principles, and the "look and feel" issues of clarity, consistency, and user needs are fully discussed. As it proceeds from the basics (installation, orientation) to professional-level topics (CD-ROM mastering, Xtras and Web authoring with Shockwave), it's easy to see why this book/CD-ROM combo has been called "a career in a box" by multimedia professionals.
