Follow along as Curtis deconstructs nine high-profile Flash projects created for real-life clients. Curtis takes time both in the introductions and throughout the project deconstructions, to emphasise the importance of thinking about and applying design-led principals to the job at hand. Book critic Ken McMahon says: __Curtis places the emphasis firmly on design and techniques that have enabled him to create some of the most compelling Flash movies on the Web. Projects include designing a $20,000 ad, animating a 3D wireframe and converting video to vectors in order to overcome bandwidth constraints. In the penultimate chapter, Todd Purgason provides an indispensible guide to producing print-based client presentations using FreeHand. __Nine Flash 5 Web projects show the reader how to use the application including screen shots and other helpful visuals. The entire text is updated with the latest changes in Flash 5. __Curtis is chief creative officer and founder of hillmancurtis, inc., a New York City design firm that has produced stunning Flash work for clients like 3Com, Intel, Hewlett-Packard, and even Macromedia itself. * Curtis's books are pretty heady stuff.
