Interactive Quicktime Authoring Wired Media

"Each presentation Matthew has done...has had the same electrifying effect. And it's always followed by a question and answer period, featuring the same questions: "How did you do that? And that? And THAT?!!" The question and answer session is always too short. I've been waiting for this book a long time. And I'm here to say, it was worth the wait. This book will show you, step by step, how to do things you never suspected were even possible. This is the master wizard's recipe book."
