or links included in the movie, and what should be visible as the movie progresses. 2. Using the storyboard, project requirements, or your written description, create a check list that you can use to verify that the movie meets your expectations. 3. Choose Control > Test Movie. As the movie plays, compare it with your check list. Click buttons and links to ensure they work as expected. 4. Choose File > Publish to publish the files required for your movie. Package the files and distribute them to colleagues or friends who can help you test the movie. Ask them to run the movie and to ensure that all the files are included, and that the movie meets the criteria on your check list. Encourage testers to use the movie as they would if they were its target audience. 5. Make changes and corrections as necessary to finalize the movie, and then test it again to ensure it meets your criteria. Note the mistakes you find, so that you can avoid them in the future, or at least recognize them more quickly when you troubleshoot future issues.   Adding Metadata Metadata is information about data. Metadata includes a document's title, a description, keywords, the date the file was created, and any other information about the document itself. You can add metadata to a Flash document, and that metadata is published in the HTML document that accompanies the SWF file. Metadata makes it easier for people to search for your movie. 1. Choose Modify > Document. 2. In the Document Properties dialog box, type Martian Mike Gets Spaced Out in the Title field. 3. In the Description field, type Spaced Out animation showcases our favorite outer space buddy, Martian Mike. Animation, Martian, Spaced Out, Martian Mike, Spaceship animation, mini movie, space, science fiction, cute space animation, Flash animation, webisode. There is no Keywords field, but you can add keywords to the Description field. Include different ways of describing the file, such as animation, mini movie, and webisode above. 4. Click OK to close the dialog box. The metadata will be saved with the Flash document, and included in the HTML file Flash creates when you publish the file. Publishing a Movie for the Web When you publish a movie for the web, Flash creates a Flash SWF file, an HTML document that inserts your Flash content in a browser window, and a JavaScript file named AC_RunActiveContent.js that lets your SWF file play automatically in active content-compliant browsers. You need to upload all three of these files, along with any other files your SWF file references, to your web server. The Publish command saves all the required files to the same folder. Note Active content is content that opens a separate application, such as Adobe Flash Player or Adobe Reader. Active content-compliant browsers open the appropriate application without requiring input from the viewer. You can specify different options for publishing a movie, including whether to detect the version of Flash Player installed on the viewer's computer. When you change the settings in the Publish Settings dialog box, they are saved with the document. Specifying Flash File Settings
