Book Reviews of Practical Poser 7 (Graphics Series)
Book Review: At last! Some POSER information that makes sense!
Summary: 5 Stars
My last experience with POSER was ver.4 and I found it hard to understand and was less than satisfed with the results... I recently saw an advertisement for version 7 and was amazed at how much the program had advanced, now incorporating many features used in high-end CGI productions. My problem was, although I had ideas I wanted to realize I still didn't really know how to drive Poser... The supplied reference manual was poorly constructed and too technical for a semi-luddite like me!
I searched Amazon for any "how to" books and saw 'Practical Poser 7" unfortunately the book reviews accompianing it did not give a really good idea of what it was about, so ordering it was a bit of a gamble...
As it was, I hit the jackpot! This is the book I needed to make sense of Poser. The examples are laid out in an understandable fashion and although they nescessarily deal with "technobabble" they approach it by assuming the reader does not nescessarily understand the terms or concepts and explains them in a simple manner. I could rapidly see how I could apply these tutorials to things I wanted to achieve, but had no idea of how to make Poser do them! Apart from a transposed illustration (fig 11.12) and one that appears wrong (Fig 11.16)the information all seems correct and I love the page layout with wide margins that leave plenty of room for notes. (and have already be covered with my scribblings and visual ideas sparked by the text!)
In conclusion, I would say this is the ideal book for those intimidated by Poser's supplied information and I would wholeheartedly reccommend it for anyone at my beginning level!
