Creating Dynamic Presentations with Streaming Media [With CDROM]

MS Producer is highly capable, but very clunky in its interface. This book attempts to serve as a guide, but is hampered by its subject's clunkiness. Still, I was able to use the book and create effective presentations. It would be nice, however, if the authors took some time to think about things from a novice's standpoint and write accordingly. Additionally, checklists, diagrams, and other ways of taking users step-by-step through typical productions would help.

... This book gives plenty of information for beginners and follows right through to the advanced stuff. It is, though, specifically about using Microsoft's Producer software to make presentations that combine Power Point slides with video or a narration. Despite the title, if you're looking for some general information about streaming media, this isn't the book for you. If you want to use Producer to make some really cool Power Point presentations that people can see on your web sight, then get this book.
