Customer Reviews & Comments
I'm going thru the Flash Training course write now and I find that Dan Livinston Teaches in a compelling, and engaging style with just the right touch of humor to keep us alert on the subjects. There are 2 cd's and Dan cover's a lot of material that can really advance your Flash career. It helps me a lot to watch several videos by an expert instructor who knows and is comfortable with his material like Dan, instead of reading a book that we might not have as much retention after going over the pages. That is why people pay so much to go to seminars and hear and see people teach the latest and greatest software. Dan Livingston's course does it here for you in a tiny fraction of the cost which to me is a tremendous value. I also had to comment on one of the other reviews that was negative on this course. It seems its real purpose was to promote Lynda's courses which are not bad but more then twice as expensive and don't cover as much material. To Dan thanks for giving us actionscript wannabe's a fighting chance to excell in the program.
