For many years, PowerPoint has been used to present images and digital video files for disclosure purposes and in courtroom presentations. Although relatively easy to use, PowerPoint is extremely limited in its presentation of digital image and video files. Additionally, if not configured properly, it compresses high resolution images, limits the quality of the images if printed from PowerPoint, and offers little security features. Easy to use, secure, dynamic presentations of digital images and video are just not possible with PowerPoint.
Courtroom Presentations with Adobe Flash provides the student with the skills necessary to create dynamic, easy to use presentations for video and image evidence. With Adobe Flash, digital files including crime scene photos, fingerprint images and comparisons, surveillance videos, case reports and even audio files can be incorporated into a presentation suitable for disclosure and courtroom presentations. In this three-day class, students will use Adobe Flash to create a layout, incorporate digital assets and annotate the results.
Students are expected to bring a laptop to class with Adobe Flash and Adobe Photoshop installed. Trial versions of software application are available from the Adobe website.
