Writing for Multimedia,
By Michael Boswell (Silicon Valley) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Writing for Multimedia: A Guide and Source Book for the Digital Writer (Paperback)
This book makes an excellent reference book for a multimedia specialist's library. The beginning of this book gives a good overview of multimedia and some good case studies of different types of multimedia. Then there are the tasty parts of the book, A Guide for the New Developer and Nonlinear Script Writing. If you are new to multimedia or have been around since the inception of multimedia, there is solid, well written, and easy to understand guides for the creation of multimedia. The appendices provide additional helpful information to the novice and experienced multimedia creators.

Good for Beginners, but Quickly Becoming Dated,

This review is from: Writing for Multimedia: A Guide and Source Book for the Digital Writer (Paperback)
There are many positive aspects to this book. The basic information concerning the structure and planning of a multimedia project is solid and clear. Korolenko goes to great lengths to make this book "user friendly" while at the same time giving a clear view of how things work in the multimedia business. The case studies are relevant when focused on the basics, but are rather dated in nature since many of the projects discussed are no longer on the market, and Splash Studios, one of the companies that becomes his major focus, apparently disappeared during the dotbomb era. Korolenko also provides a decent history of multimedia through the late 1990s. What he fails to do is consider the coming impact of the Internet on multimedia writing. While not a completely disappointing read, it could use a serious update after almost ten years in print.
