Product Description:


Workflow-focused, project-based, best-practices approach. Hands-on tutorials interspersed with referential material in each chapter. It's obvious from speaking both to customers and spending time on-line that users crave specific types of information related to their disciplines. More specifically, the information relates to how VIZ fits into their workflow. Given that VIZ is a different tool from most design tools, it requires them to change their workflow to match the product. The primary focus of this book would be to show users how to minimize the amount of "shifting" they have to do to use VIZ as well as how to get the most out of VIZ by understanding its features.



To summarize, the book will accomplish two main goals for presenting VIZ:
  • Understanding VIZ's workflow
  • Understanding VIZ's features




The CD-ROM includes all the files that are needed to complete the exercises in each chapter.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Book for a true 3d modeler
This is the best max/Viz book I have used. I've been learning Max/viz on my own for about 4 months now and after getting this book the program has been completely demystified. Max has a really complex interface that scares people away and does not lend to trial and error and that is exactly where this book excels at. The step by step tutorials are helpful even though I'm using Viz4.
This is the best book for anyone serious about Max/Viz because it simplifies the modeling aspects a lot and even ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best 3D Studio Book
Forget any of the other books on Max or Viz. This one is the BEST for Architects & Designers. I learned more from this book than I did in an entire semester at school. I used it on Viz 4 -and other than a few differences, mainly the sub-object button, the instructions are the same.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Inside 3D Studio VIZ 3
Great, Great, Great book. Just the right material for the intermediate to the advanced, with great tips and tricks. I found the format of the book easy to follow and the lessons very intuitive.
I cannot wait for the VIZ 4 book!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Forget the Tutorials (icluded with Viz)
I learned more in the first chapter of this book than I did by following ALL of the tutorials included with Viz. A great self-teaching guide.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If your serious about VIZ you need this book!
Over the course of the last year I have been teaching myself 3d studio viz. When this book finally shipped I immediately ordered one, and am I glad I did. I find every chapter gives me some tips for modelling in this powerful program that I never would have thought of on my own. Every chapter is well written but be advised that you should have an understanding of viz before working through this book. If your just starting with the software, do the tutorials that ship with the software before moving ... Read More
