Flash Video and Design Patterns
This summer two new Flash books are coming out that I had the pleasure of getting involved with as a technical reviewer. They are both very good books and will be excellent additions to my bookshelf.
The first book is “Flash Video for Professionals” written by two very good friends of mine Lisa Larson and Renee Constantini. The book is well written and has many examples on all aspects of Flash Video development in both ActionScript 2.0 and ActionScript 3.0. It’s a great way for developers not yet using AS3 to get started with Flash Video today and yet be able to continue to get more out of the book as they delve into AS3.
The second book is written by a colleague I haven’t yet met in person but have read many things by him before. William Sanders’ “ActionScript 3.0 Design Patterns: Object Oriented Programming Techniques” covers all of the popular Design Patterns and how they can help solve common problems in Flash and Flex applications.
