Creating an MP3 player with Actionscript 3.0:  Video Series Preview

I am pleased to provide this video preview of the upcoming series: Creating an Mp3 Player with Actionscript 3.0. If you’ve ever wanted to dive deeper in to Actionscript 3.0, this video series will be a great way to learn more advanced language constructs, and truly understand Actionscript’s object oriented approach.

This video series will start with creating a very simple MP3 player that just plays a song. As features like volume and pan controls, ID3 tags and a song timer get added you will learn a lot about Actionscript and creating Actionscript based Flash movies.

This video series is appropriate for beginning or intermediate flash users.

This first preview video shows you how to set up your Flash movie and how to use the Sound and URLLoader classes to get your first song to play.

This entire video series will be available soon from LearnToProgram.tv.

Flex BYOL Session at eLearning Devcon 09

I was please to be invited to speak at eLearning Devcon 2009 in Salt Lake City, Utah. My session on Adobe Flex went very well. I was happy to see the session was well attended and the two hours allotted went very quickly. We covered the basics of the Adobe Flex platform and built three very small applications using Flex Builder.

The audience was mostly non-programmers, however they seemed to adapt to the basic concepts used in the MXML and Actioncscript 3.0 well. I have posted the exercises done during the session here. If you use the exercise files you must use the import command in Flex to import the entire project folder. You will then be able to open the source file which contains the MXML and the Actionscript code
