NOTE EDITORE

Maya artists often have to find shortcuts and work-arounds to make the deadline while still delivering impeccable professional results. Sybex's Maya Visual Effects The Innovator's Guide, 2nd Edition takes that same "MacGyver" type approach as the first edition with new projects and new challenges for the intermediate to advanced Maya user.  Just like in the studio, each chapter presents a director's sketch on the back of a napkin envisioning fire, otherworldly phenomenon, and dreamlike sequences that the reader-artists have to interpret and bring to life in Maya.In an actual, professional production pipeline, working with Maya is seldom a step-by-step, by-the-numbers process. Art directors often give professional Maya animators a few storyboards and a description of what the animation or effect will be (maybe as little as a post-it note with a quick sketch) but they are not always equipped to tell you how to achieve the desired result. So you have to think like an inventor. Professional Maya artist Eric Keller has developed many of these techniques in professional effects and animation situations that required inspired solutions.
