GoLive's QuickTime editing capabilities go way beyond what most people will ever use. This project only begins to show you what you can accomplish using GoLive's various QuickTime editing features. With Sprite tracks you can import separate images to create hot spots and rollover effects in your movies. With a little extra XML coding and access to QuickTime Pro, you can create a customized media skin that displays in the QuickTime player, a great way to personalize your movies, or to brand content and generate name recognition for your business.

Topics covered: Developing a media skin with Photoshop, movie tracks, sprite tracks, adding sprites, sprite rollovers, sprite Actions, XML data, Apple's QuickTime Pro.
