I’m going to be doing some Flash intros (hopefully a lot of them and for a long time), that need to be very “cinematic”, I guess would be the word to describe them. Kind of like when you go to a movie website, and the Flash intro works as almost like a trailer for the movie. I don’t need help on the Flash end, but I’d like to prepare myself as far as how to effectively present these in a compelling way that generates interest. I took a film class, but that was a long time ago, and I need some sort of refresher and to learn some new tricks of the trade. Can anyone recommend any books or classes (short-term, like a week or so and not a full semester at somewhere like Full Sail)?

Thanks 🙂
