Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Beginner
Review: Being a beginner this book not only helped me but it increased the speed at which I would have learnt ... you may ask Why? Because it is such an easy to reference book and it is nice and easy to read. I have bought other books on director that look like thick manuals which take you days on end to get through but this one was quick and easy. I must agree with the other reviews that I have read, in that I wish there were more worked out examples (it is always a nice feature to work with the writer.) Summery If you are a beginner and want an easy to reference book then this is the book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A typical quickstart guide...
Review: Buy this book if you want a brief reference at times when you need some reminders. If you want to learn Director in a manner that will help you create something quickly, don't use this book. It is really just a collection of facts about different parts of the program. Get the Gross book and learn the program with an eye on creating a finished product.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great way to start
Review: For those that have never picked up Director, this is a nice and clear way to step into it's powerful interface. This book introduces you to each of its panels- drawing, the timeline, properties and then briefs you on Lingo (Director's own scripting language). I'd give this book another star if it gave a little more information on Lingo.

A nice way to become acquainted with Director. If you want to get more in depth I'd recommend Director 7 Demystified.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book was my bible
Review: If I didn't have this book in my multimedia class, I would have failed horribly. You will be able to make great Director projects with this book. It's not over wordy. It's not full of techno jibba-jabba. I completed my class months ago, but I'm still reading the book. This time, I'm reading for fun. I recommend all the Visual Quickstart books, especially this one.

Summary: good
Review: It's exactly what the title says...a quickstart to using DIRECTOR 7. after all... that's all that could be quick, because in my opinion Director programs are work-intensive.

Summary: Quickstart?
Review: Well, I wouldn't recomend this book as anything but a primer. No real practical examples or inspiration. No real lingo help either.
