![]() That's a little high on the price right now but it would be sweet. I've spent over 5 thousand on computer stuff in the last month and have a digital video camera on the wish list. I think the boss might be getting worn thin. |

![]() I like director, and I don't find it to be to diffucult to use to do basic things, there are a lot of drag and drop behaviors that are standard for creating presentations. What is nice is that you can import .avi's, etc as castmembers or launch them in a seperate window - there are lots of options available to you. |

![]() Yup, director is definitely the way to go. We've just completed a cd for a homebuilding company, video intro and all done in director (well, the video itself wasn't done in director, but you know what i mean). There may be some other software for DVD authoring tho, looking up some stuff on that and I'll let ya know... |

![]() kromaZ: multimedia builder is not bad. It's poorly documented but if you're playing with at least half a deck (I run about 60%) you can figure out the basics. I put together a simple sample this morning and it was an eye popper for the boss. I appreciate the recommend. |

![]() To be honest it's hard to say on learning curve, i'm just getting back into it but i also know Flash quite well now; first time around i had a bit of a hard time picking it up with no other experience. There are a lot of good books out there though, that definitely helps. I really don't know of any other apps that do the same thing well tho, director is pretty much the standard. Some cd-rom stuff can be done in Flash, but director does a much better job handling bitmaps and video. |
