[vet-mm] Multimedia Textbooks for 2009

Tue Sep 16 16:10:52 EST 2008

Hi Maree,

The nearest I can think of is Tay Vaughan's "Multimedia: Making it Work", it's now up to its Seventh Edition and covers much of the theoretical aspects of Multimedia tested in the exam.  Unfortunately, it is very expensive (about $90) and does not cover scripting or write content and copy in any great detail.  The best resource I have found is Reece Lamshed's binary blue resources (www.binaryblue.com.au).  You will need to register on his website to get access to these...

Regards,

Paul Sijpkes

Hi Maree,
Sadly I don't believe any such text exists.
See the edulist archives for previous threads about books/resources.
