The task-oriented format mimics a real-world work flow: Features,functions, and subjects are introduced as they come up during the course ofthe project. This edition of the book covers what's new and exciting inAfter Effects 5.0: 3D compositing, hierarchical layering, and powerfulanimation and masking enhancements. The accompanying cross-platform CDincludes all the files you need to complete the projects.
