Director 6 for Macintosh (Visual QuickStart Guide)

Director 6 for Macintosh offers beginning and intermediate computer users a useful introduction to the Mac version of Macromedia's Director 6 multimedia authoring program. Author Andre Persidsky offers step- by-step instructions throughout the book, explaining how to create your own movies using Director's sprite-animation, paint, text, sound, and digital-video features. You also get an introduction to the more difficult aspects of Director, including such issues as working with color, transitions, and tempo; making stand-alone movies; using Lingo, Director's scripting language; using Xtras, which are add-ins for extending Director; and working with the program's new built-in drag-and-drop behaviors. A Windows version of the book is also available.
