Summary

This book provides a comprehensive and systematic introduction to the basic operations of Flash CS6 and the techniques of web animation production. It covers Flash CS6 fundamentals, drawing and editing graphics, editing and modifying objects, editing text, using external assets, symbols and the library, creating basic animations, layers and advanced animation, editing audio assets, using ActionScript, creating interactive animations, components and behaviors, testing, optimizing, exporting, and publishing projects, and comprehensive design practice. The content is taught through case studies: by producing these cases, students quickly become familiar with the software's features and with artistic design approaches. The software feature analyses help students study the software in depth; classroom exercises and end-of-chapter assignments extend students' practical application skills and improve their command of the software. The final chapter presents five comprehensive design practice cases specially arranged by a professional design company, intended to enhance students' creative design abilities.

This book is suitable as a textbook for digital media art courses in vocational colleges and as a self-study reference for related professionals.

Editor's review

Flash CS6实例教程（第5版）（微课版） is a classic introductory textbook for beginners in Flash animation design and production. Published by Posts & Telecom Press, it is authored by Zhou Jianguo, who has extensive experience in digital media art education. Although Flash technology has gradually faded from mainstream web applications over time, its core ideas in animation principles, interaction logic, and multimedia content creation still hold significant learning value. Through numerous examples, the book systematically explains the basics of Flash CS6, drawing techniques, animation production (frame-by-frame animation, tweening, guide-layer animation, mask animation, etc.), basic ActionScript 3.0 programming, and audio/video processing.

As a "micro-lecture edition," the book comes with related video learning resources that visualize key operations and complex concepts, lowering the learning threshold and making it well suited for self-study. In the editor's view, the value of this book lies not in chasing the latest technology trends but in building a solid foundation in 2D animation and interactive content creation. The step-by-step case-based teaching method helps readers understand core concepts such as the "timeline," "symbols," and the "library" through hands-on practice; these concepts are the cornerstone of many modern animation and UI design tools. For readers who want to understand the traditional interactive animation production workflow, or who are engaged in related teaching or restoration of nostalgic content, this is a clearly structured and highly practical reference book. Today, with HTML5 and various engines dominating, revisiting the history and design thinking of Flash technology can also provide deep insight into the evolution of digital content.

Who it's for

A good fit for

Students majoring in animation design and production, as an introductory textbook
Self-learners interested in 2D animation principles and traditional interactive animation production
Teachers or trainers in digital media who need classic case references
Multimedia content creators who want to understand Flash's technical architecture and history to broaden their knowledge

Not a good fit for

Developers seeking to learn the latest front-end web animation technologies (such as CSS3 or HTML5 Canvas)
Professional programmers who want to develop complex games or advanced applications

Reading tips

Follow the chapter order and be sure to perform every exercise in the book hands-on, understanding the principles behind each step
Focus on the animation production sections (such as tweening and mask animation); these are the essence of Flash technology, and their ideas are transferable across software
For the ActionScript programming sections, treat them as an introduction to understanding event-driven and object-oriented programming; do not pursue depth, but focus on building concepts

FAQ

Is there still any point in learning Flash CS6 now?

There is a specific point. Although Flash Player has stopped being supported, Flash Professional (later renamed Animate CC) is still updated and supports output formats such as HTML5 Canvas. Learning Flash CS6 is fundamentally about mastering the basic methodology of animation production and interaction design; these are general foundations of digital content creation and have a positive transfer effect on learning other animation software such as Adobe Animate and After Effects.

Is this book suitable for readers with no background at all?

Very suitable. The book is positioned as an example-based tutorial, starting with an introduction to the software interface and guiding learning through detailed step-by-step cases, with micro-lecture videos to support understanding. It is very friendly to beginners. The key is to stay patient and follow the exercises.

Is the ActionScript 3.0 knowledge in the book outdated?

From the perspective of the language itself, ActionScript 3.0 is a mature object-oriented language, and its syntax and programming ideas are not outdated. However, its main application scenarios have indeed shrunk. The programming content in this book is fairly basic, intended to help readers understand how interaction logic is implemented; it can serve as an introduction to programming thinking rather than deep technical study aimed at employment or project development.

About the author

周建国 Author

Zhou Jianguo is a Chinese book author whose work spans several fields; public information about him is limited, and details of his life remain unclear. The library holds 13 of his works, covering a notably wide range of subjects. On one hand, he has worked on classical texts and poetry, with annotated editions and selections such as the Annotated Collected Works of Li Deyu and The Collected Works of Li Shangyin, showing a sustained interest in Tang history and literature. On the other hand, he has written on education and computer design, including Teaching Does Not Equal Learning: How Schools Develop Curricula, along with full-color MOOC and micro-course tutorials on Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and H5 page design. His writing combines scholarly collation with practical instruction: the classical works emphasize textual annotation and selection, while the technical textbooks stress case-based practice and course support, serving different readerships and reflecting an editorial approach that bridges traditional humanities scholarship and contemporary skills education.

刘丰源 Author

Liu Fengyuan is a book author about whom limited public information is available, and the existing details are not enough to present a complete personal background; the available information mainly centers on the works published under this name. Judging from the two titles held in the database, Liu Fengyuan's co-authored books focus on the field of software learning: Photoshop CC UI Design Case Tutorial (Full-Color MOOC Edition) and Flash CS6 Practical Examples Tutorial (5th Edition) (Micro-Lecture Edition). Both works take specific software as their subject and adopt the format of case-based tutorials and example-driven teaching, with full-color presentation or micro-lecture resources, reflecting an approach oriented toward hands-on operation and step-by-step demonstration. The writing style tends to be practical, helping readers master Photoshop interface design and Flash animation skills by following the cases. Although biographical information about the author is lacking, these two tutorials can still serve as a reference for understanding their editorial characteristics and are suitable for software beginners and classroom learning.
