It's easy to use and understand. It has a great bookmarking system that lets you pick up where ever you left off even months later and it's nice to be able to follow along, it's the best way I learn.

I find many learning dvd tutorials boring, because the teacher often apply his knowledge with examples, that seems like a piece in a big puzzle, instead of collecting all the pieces and then make something useful out of it, at least after teaching the pieces.

Well this dvd tutorial is different. The teacher John Ulliman has a real passion for teaching you flash, at least so it seems like, and eventhough the dvd is like 24 hours long, you never get tired, because the examples are relevant and complex. He goes from the 1 step and takes you all the way to the last one in developing, video, animations, design and so on. You are never lost, and every lesson go all the way, and do not stop like a piece in a puzzle. You get the hole puzzle here.

The only thing I miss, is a chapter about using flash dynamically. There is one chapter about using flash together with xml, but that is after my oppinion the only chapter which are kind of weak, maybe because I don`t get the xml part, but I wished he would have shown how you could make a simple form together with a server language.

Well there is no doubt in my mind, this is without any doubt the best tutorial about flash out there, and if you wanna learn flash in a fun and quickly way, then stop buying other dvd`s or books about learning flash, buy this dvd! it is really great!
