Résumé

The Digital Studio: 3D for Photographers, Illustrators and Graphic Designers provides creative professionals with ideas for how incorporating 3D, specifically Maya, into their toolkit can help them to achieve stunning, original and affordable illustrations. With a concentration on the introduction of 3D into photography and illustration, this book will provide tutorial projects presented in an easy-to-follow step-by-step manner. The book will examine workflows that incorporate the Adobe suite of products as well as traditional photography and 3D solutions.

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.
