Working with Adobe's two most powerful vector applications doesn't need to be difficult, especially when using them together effectively. Instructor Mordy Golding shows how to set up Illustrator with Flash in mind, how to work with groups, layers and styles, and explains 3D effects and artwork mapping. Golding also demonstrates how to work with type, how to create and use symbols, and provides insider hints and guidelines. Emphasis is on creating Illustrator files that will work most efficiently and smoothly in Flash using Live Paint, Live Trace, and Live Effects. Exercise files accompany the training, allowing you to follow along and learn at your own pace.
Topics include:
Illustrator essentials for Flash users
Using Live Effects
Drawing in Illustrator vs. drawing in Flash
Converting bitmap images to vectors with Live Trace
The power of Symbols
Constructing content in Illustrator for use in Flash
The mechanics of going from Illustrator to Flash
Handling type between the two applications
