Behind-the-Scenes: Photography Skills Captivate Project (Introduction)

I’m working on a series of videos sharing a behind-the-scenes walk through of a recent project I created in Adobe Captivate.  This first video is an introduction to the project and what it includes.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? eLearning game template

New and Improved!!! I upgraded the prior version to this new version that utilizes a lot of cool Shared Actions, that makes this project run so much nicer! I have also updated the tutorial, and I apologize in advance, it’s about 20 minutes long.

This eLearning game can be used for many different eLearning needs, whether for kids, adults, schools, training, or just for fun!

The graphics and sound bytes are not owned or created by me, it was downloaded as open free ware.

**Special Thanks to Paul Wilson for assisting with the Advanced Actions Scripts for this project!
