Becoming A Computer Animator
by Mike Morrison
Sams Publishing
------------------------------
This CD-ROM contains a wealth of PC and Macintosh animation-related software.
Whether you have a Mac or a PC, your computer will only "see" the portion of
the CD-ROM that is meant for it. Here's what you'll find on the Computer
Animator disc:
* Special working versions of professional animation, rendering
and modeling software
* Samples of commercial 3-D models
* Samples of commercial textures and graphics
* Award-winning animations
* Shareware and Freeware Animation Tools
The book has more details on the CD-ROM's software, in the section "What's On
the Computer Animator CD-ROM".
