Summary: 3D Max Animation
Review: This book is excellent if you understand the basics of 3D Studio Max, but cannot get to grips with the more advanced feature set of the animation tools. It covers alot of different types of animation from animating various animals, and humanoid characters to explosions and animating the environment.It also has insider knowledge on using various techniques used in other types of work. (e.g. in forensic animation etc..) It may not explain every detail on how to perform various tasks so it is important that you have basic understanding of the MAX interface, but it is certainly a great reference on animation, and the animation industry. It even has tools for showcasing your work and producing a demo reel. Included are several tutorials and a CD full of example files, avi's and demo versions of some of the leading plugins. I haven't seen Volume 1 and 2 yet...
