[Lucas Schwantes · Rating 2 out of 5]

Its a good book for people with almost no experience in any kind of animation software. Does give a clear and objective overview of lots of aspects of the process, but definitely NOT worth the price tag. I paid about 40£ and thats the average price i’m seeing around: its not worth it. Good if you like to have guidebooks/reference books. If not, a few good introduction/tips and tricks videos on youtube does the job very well. Did tried for a refund but the publisher website won’t let me.
