Summary: well worth the money
Comment: for a professional out there, this book might not provide a terrible amount of insight into the areas it delves into, but for me, who just finished the Learning Maya book, this is an excellent continuation. i consider myself as a Maya newbie and so i'm getting an awful lot of help with this book, and i can easily see myself coming back to this book for reference.
and the print quality is superb.. colour pictures throughout!

Summary: Dont rely on books to be a PRO
Comment: I picked up this book due to the insights it gives. It is a great reference book if you have industry experience and want a different perspective on certain situations, that always occur in the wonderful world of CGI visual effects. If you want a sneek peek at the way its done at the grand end of the industry scale then you will probably not find a better book currently available, if on the other hand your wanting to filch ideas from the big boys and girls, and use them to be passed of as your own creative genious then Im afraid that the no book on earth will help you, and why should it.

Summary: Pros do not needed, intermidate... i guess not
Comment: I was looking for a book on Maya that would come up with some useful modeling techniques. So I bought this one. The book does have tutorials. The easiest go like: make a cylinder, shape up a horse out of it, now you'll do the lip-synching. The worst was: 1. Make a person with motion capture. 2. Hire a hard working actor with a rich voice. 3.Proceed to production.
All in all, there were some tips and worthy tutorials, but all those will not help you to become a pro, and if you are a pro, those won't help you anyway.
