Prerequisites It is necessary to possess a good understanding of how computers and the Internet work. It will be assumed that students can upload files to the Internet. This should not be the first multimedia/graphics application you learn! Requirements Programming-wise: Nothing at all! It doesn't hurt to know a bit about JavaScript or Basic as Director's Lingo is based
on similar ideas and this course will get into a bit of Lingo.
Web space: You will have to upload assignments to the Internet so that your teacher may review them. This means you all must have some storage space on the Internet. This storage space must be configured (MIME-Type) to handle Shockwave files and native Director files. If you don't have web space to store your files on, you can get lots of megabytes of free space with http://www.geocities.com. Software: IMPORTANT! If you wish to be able to use Macromedia's 30-day trial version for the complete duration of the course, you must not install this trial version before class has started! Class Books
