Chapter 3. Working with Standard Objects

When the filming is complete, the director takes the rushes and heads towards the postproduction studio to begin the most time-consuming phase of the process. While in the studio, the director arranges the sequences shot during the filming in the correct order, adds sound effects, arranges transitions, fine-tunes visual and special effects, adds subtitles, and re-records narration, among other actions. When the director leaves the postproduction studio, the motion picture is complete and ready for publishing.

The same basic principle applies to your Captivate projects. During the postproduction phase, you will revisit each slide one by one to arrange, reorder, synchronize, add, modify, align, delete, and so on. To help you turn your rushes into a great eLearning experience, Captivate provides an extensive array of tools, features, and objects. In the next few chapters, you will take a deep look at each of them one by one.
