"Photoshop for VFX Artists" is an in-depth guide to using Photoshop to achieve a specific goal. It is not meant to serve as a general bible or litney of functions.
By incorporating a straight-forward, visual approach to Adobe's best selling software, this book will provide you with everything you need to use Photoshop within your own specific context.
Although there are many Photoshop books on the market, there are very few that are targeted specifically to the 3D artist, and even fewer that are written by a movie industry professional.
"Photoshop for 3D Artists" adheres to the high standards
of the VFX world, but is designed to still be clearly understandable to the intermediate hobbyist.
