Adobe Flash CS3 Professional Training Courses:
Four hours per week during 12 weeks
Adobe Flash CS3 Professional is a unique program which can be used to produce movies capable of being played back on web sites using the freely available Flash player. Movies may be simple animations but can also include interactivity. In fact, you can build a complete web site in Flash. Because the software uses vector images rather than bitmaps for graphics, Flash movies tend to be extremely compact in size and therefore download very quickly.
We offer Flash MX training courses from beginner to advanced levels. Flash MX and ActionScript are among the regular scheduled computer training courses held at our central North York training centre, and we can also organize in-house training anywhere in the GTA. Part 1 Introduction to Flash gives users a thorough introduction to this unique environment and also shows users how to add basic interactivity to their projects using ActionScript.
Part 2 Advanced Flash focuses on ActionScript programming.
Tuition: $ 989.00 CAD
