Synopsis
This is a follow-up to "Animation and 3D Modeling on the Mac" by the same authors. The previous book introduced novice animators to the basic principles of creating 3D objects. The new book takes the next step, leading the user to more advanced animation techniques and expanding its coverage to include Windows programs. A CD-ROM contains software demos and sample files.

From the Back Cover
"How'd they do that?" Go behind the scenes to see how professional animators create special effects on desktop computers. This book covers everything from blowing things up and creating fog effects, to web animations, adding sound tracks, and lighting effects. Includes a gallery of professional work with hints for setting up your own studio on Windows or Macintosh. The CD-ROM supplies textures, sounds, and 3D models in the book.
Reviews
This is a great book on doing animation on both Macs and Windows machines. The Foleys take up where their last book, Animation & 3D Modeling on the Macintosh (Peachpit, 1995), left off, and this might be considered a mid-level book. They discuss the sort of people who will want to do the tricks and the hardware and software needed and then get on to the tricks themselves, which range from fly throughs to animated gifs, 3D forests, facades, midi files, texture maps, motion blurs, and more. Best of all, they advocate that most animating needs can be met with basic graphic arts software. For medium and large collections in both public and academic libraries.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
