Customer Reviews

A good "text-book" on the creation of special effects.

Together with Bernard Wilkie's book 'Creating Special Effects for TV and Video' makes it to a perfect companion on the creation of special effects. If this book is a "text-book" then 'Creating Special...' may be called "work-book". The book cover every basic technique from the simplest to more complex effects. The only lack is description of motion-controle, optical printing and digital composite methodes. But no other book cover the harware of the buissnes, and thats enough to buy it
