Can anyone tell me if any books on tips and tricks for Animator Pro have been published? I don't need a tutorial on the basics (the manuals do a fine job of explaining how to use the various tools, inks, etc.) I would like a book that demonstrates and explains techniques and some of the finer points, so that I won't have to spend hundreds of hours experimenting with all of the possible settings and combinations of tools and inks to discover what can be done with the software. Thanks, -tom-

>>>Can anyone tell me if any books on tips and tricks for Animator Pro have been published?<<< Tom, I think "Using animator" published by QUE technical, [ISBN 0-88022-544-0] may be just what your looking for! Good luck, Carl[UK]

Is this book "Using Animator" written for Autodesk Animator or Autodesk Animator Pro? Thanx in advance, Paul Frey Our World Comics

>> Can anyone tell me if any books on tips and tricks for Animator Pro have been published? << I would recommend the free telecourses in library 4 (search on NTP02 and NTP03 for courses which begin with ANI). last semester there was one on techniquesand this semester there are 3; one on POCO, one on technique and one on integration with 3D Studio. all are sponsored by the North American Autodesk User Group. if you find them valuable, membership costs the same as a book ($35). -dave
