Advanced Adobe Director 11.5

Duration: 1 Day

Objectives

This Adobe certified course provides a design-oriented workshop in Director, building on knowledge gained from or equivalent to the Fundamentals course.

An alternative, more technically oriented course is our Introduction to Lingo course, which concentrates more on Lingo syntax and programming techniques.

Pre-requisites

Course includes

A comprehensive set of reference notes covering course topics, follow-up telephone support and, for training on Transmedia premises, lunch and refreshments.
