Simply amazing!! - Im Not a VFX artist. I've always wanted to learn, just for fun, since where I come from this is not a career (or something you can make a life from). This book takes you step by step, combining techniques and moving on. Basically "this is the new trick.... Now add the previous chapters to make it work". It's true, not all the materials (pics, footage, 3D models) are available to download, but hey, VFX is about doing tour own stuff, isn't it? As a guerrilla hobbyist I just finished my first reading and I'm about to take my camera, shoot my footage and practice my VFX with it. The book is amazing, seriously, of course, there are lots of things that are left for you to study (say, After Effects, Mocha, 3D software, etc), but the greatness of this book is "hey, you know how to use your software? Now use it this way and make something awesome", no matter what your favorite software is. Review: I like the fact that you can use it with different ... - This book is the required text for my VFX course. I like the fact that you can use it with different software. The VFX techniques I,II,III.,walk you through a shot, which you can easily follow with your own projects. Chapter Seven 3D Tracking and Matchmoving CG is really useful because it explains it in a way that students can understand and then you can go into the different software choices that they can use. He covers Stereoscopic 3D and 2D to 3D Conversion VFX. which is still useful in 360 3D VR software like Nuke 11. Chapter 15 on Cutting Edge 3D VFX, I used the Reallusion iClone, 3DXchange, and Mocap Plugin. I bought two X-Box 360 Kinects used from GameStop and had Mocap working for $50, plus the iClone software. This book covers everything from beginning to end, including "Starting Your VFX Career" ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,303,374 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #11,823 in Computer Science (Books) #51,923 in Computers & Technology (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (39) | | Dimensions | 7.75 x 1 x 9.25 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 0321984382 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0321984388 | | Item Weight | 2.38 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 530 pages | | Publication date | January 1, 2014 | | Publisher | New Riders Pub | ## Images ![Digital Visual Effects and Compositing - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91qVajBOEVL.jpg) ![Digital Visual Effects and Compositing - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91st3MDNrbL.jpg) ![Digital Visual Effects and Compositing - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41YQqLnJOLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing!

Some authors get so lost in the sound of their own voice in their heads that you're bored to tears by the time they finally arrive at their point. This book is the Real World of VFX. Every chapter is so useful that to this day I glean insight from them all.
