Book Information and Description:

3D Tools for Photographers, Illustrators & Graphic Designers Book/DVD Package
* Provides creative professionals with ideas for how 3D software, specifically Maya, can help them achieve stunning, original, and affordable illustrations
  
* Concentrates on the introduction of 3D into photography and illustration, using tutorial projects presented in an easy-to-follow, step-by-step manner
  
* Examines 3D workflows that incorporate the Adobe suite of products as well as traditional photography
  
* Introduces readers to water effects, bubbles, shadows, neon, smoke effects, cloud enhancements, swapping props, trees and leaves, digital hair, galaxy scenes, and much more
  
* The packed DVD includes the Maya Personal Learning Edition and a plug-in created exclusively for this book, which gives artists Maya's 3D painting tools directly within Photoshop
The packed DVD will include the Maya Personal Learning Edition, which is a free version of Maya for non-commercial use, a necessary component for those just starting out. It will also include a plug-in created exclusively for this book -- a Maya PaintEffects plug-in for Photoshop, which will give artists 3D painting tools directly within Photoshop and enable them to apply oil, watercolor, chalk and other effects directly onto textures and polygon meshes.

The DVD will also provide instructor-led tutorial movies, as well as scene files, including some pre-built shaders and tools specific to the workflows explored.
