an ideal book for existing users of After Effects - By: , 02 May 2002
As an after effects artist of four years, I have dealt with most aspects in tv production but one thing I couldn't work out was expressions, the adobe manual barely touches on them & their power in commanding animations. So to find book which is up to date & has a full five chapters on the subject starting with simple logical explanations & following on with more in depth techniques I have found this book invaluable. Finallly I can see their logic. The other chapters include keying & using 3D in After effects which came in with version 5 of the software. I found on the whole alll of the information useful & well explained even though on the downside this book is yet another american version quoting NTSC timecode etc, so be warned if you are not up to scratch in converting these into a PAL system as I am use to. Having said that After Effects 5: classroom in a book does this as well so maybe there's just a gap in the market for a PAL rewrite with PAL friendly footage on the CD.
