Fireworks CS5 Training
Accelerate web design and development with Adobe® Fireworks® CS5 software, the ideal tool for creating and optimizing images for the web and rapidly prototyping websites and web applications.
Fireworks CS5 offers the flexibility to edit both vector and bitmap images, a common library of prebuilt assets, and time-saving integration with Adobe Photoshop® CS5, Adobe Illustrator® CS5, Adobe Dreamweaver® CS5, and Adobe Flash® CS5 software.
Mock up designs quickly in Fireworks, or leverage other assets from Illustrator, Photoshop, and Flash. Then move directly into Dreamweaver CS5 for easy development and deployment.

Course Aims
Fireworks is the Swiss Army Knife of web design. Learn how it can improve your design workflow, from the initial website wireframes, to live, functioning prototypes. Fireworks enables you to quickly work out the look and feel of a site, before even touching HTML and CSS in Dreamweaver.
In a wider context, students learn the foundations of website design, introducing topics such as User Interface (UI) design, User Experience (UX) design, Usability and Information Architecture.
Students also learn to create images for web sites, such as animated GIF banners, background images for CSS, and favicons - those little icons you see in the address bar of the browser!
