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!

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
