Book Overview:

Macromedia Director is the #1 tool for creating interactive multimedia. Its power and versatility are unmatched, allowing users to combine text, graphics, animation, video, and sound to create streaming, multiuser content for use in presentations, CD-ROMs, and the Web. Although it's organized around the metaphor of a film production, with cast, stage, scripts, and so on, Director is not known for its ease of use. Director 8 Demystified steps in to guide readers through the related technologies (Lingo and Shockwave), technical skills, and creative concepts necessary to tap the power of Director 8. This new edition also covers features new to this latest release, including new design and authoring tools and one-click publishing of Shockwave content.
