Having been an Adobe user for many years and an Educator I had opportunity to not only follow this author for many years, I also got the opportunity to take one of his labs at Adobe Max. Joseph Labrecque's has a way of breaking down the “how to “ to simplify the approach to learning.Starting with a bit of history of where this software came from and then moving into lesson plans. Easy to follow, there is a feeling of “success” fairly quickly as you move through. All the new panels and assets are explained including the Auto Rigging, social sharing and many more. Not to mention if you are more of a visual learner the large screen shots and easy to follow instruction make this a must for your bookshelf. I highly recommend this book to both beginners and Intermediate users.

There are a lot of free pdf and video tutorials out there. Don't make the mistake I made. I'm a retired Computer Technology teacher, should have known better but needed something to give my grandson to get started quickly. This book is a waste of money!

I'm an Adobe Educator Leader and teach various Adobe programs at the New School Center for Media in Albany, New York. One of the things I love about this book is how easy it is to follow. Whether you are a BEGINNER in Adobe Animate and need to read this book from page 1, a NOVICE and is looking to find certain chapters for reference, or an INSTRUCTOR who is looking how to organize his or her course, this book is for you. I'm pretty certain an EXPERT will learn a thing or two from this book as well.

As an educator and an Adobe Heavy user, I have always tried to select quality courses, books and materials to study, deepen and elaborate my classes. Adobe Animate has become a more intuitive and user-friendly tool for the creative user over the years since the acquisition of Macromedia. The Animate 2021 interface, which allows sharing on social media, allows the user to create files for use with softwares like After Effects, Premiere, Illustrator and Photoshop. In the same way it encourages those who want to start in the world of animationThe chapters written in this book are very well detailed to the student and allow intuitively to organize themselves in their learning. Joseph very successfully managed to develop an unmissable book and share his knowledge with those who want to increase his fluency in this incredible tool. I recommend!
