"This is the master wizard's recipe book." -From the foreword by Steven Gulie, author of QuickTime for the Web "This book belongs on the shelf of anyone who takes multimedia development seriously." -Ken Loge, Oregon Research Institute, "Matthew Peterson, one of the world's most innovative minds, infuses Interactive QuickTimelt;/b> with applicable insight and helpful humor. This book goes well beyond the basics, far into the best practices, with plenty of supporting scripts and sample projects. Covering a wide spectrum of topics, Interactive QuickTime: Authoring Wired Medialt;/b> addresses the building of UIs, repurposing already existing media, using physics for richer motion, and that's just getting started. The appendices along with the exploration of XML in QuickTime are indispensable resources for the active producer of QuickTime media. I am excited to have this resource available for QuickTime authors!"
