A PowerScript Project is a defined unit of work, such as the task you’ve been assigned
to create material for the SIGHTnSOUND production. A Project is comprised of one
or more Pages, such as the individual title screens you’ll be creating. You need to give
each project a name so that you can later identify it.
For this exercise, name the new project TUTORIAL. You can easily change the name
of any project whenever you want to do so.
