| The objective of this book is to teach you, the digital artist, how to apply the techniques taught to traditional artists, such as painters and photographers. This book explains traditional Western art theories, which have been refined since the time of the Greeks, as they apply to the new medium of digital artwork. While researching information for this book, I found that many computer-graphics books teach you how to create a model and light it with a 'global illumination' light set. And there are plenty of books for photographers on how to set up the lighting and arrange elements in a photograph. But there are no books that combine these techniques into one book... let alone a book that applies these techniques to the world of 3D artwork. Read this book and learn how to use the following techniques to improve your artwork: Composition Color Perspective Camera location and angles Lighting Special Effects And an extra chapter with suggestions and topics on how to develop your own style of artwork. This book is great for beginners who are just starting to make digital images or the experienced user looking to refine his or her skills. This product includes ONE (1) PDF file, which can be opened with Adobe Acrobat or any other PDF-reader. |
