關於作者：
Eric Allen is currently the Modeling Lead at Daz3d. Besides
creating and managing the creation of the figures, he is in charge
of the creation of hundreds of deformer and viseme morphs for the
Daz3d figures. He also oversees the creation of the joint
controlled corrective morphs. These can add up to hundreds of
shapes that work with each other to produce realistic deformations.
He helped create Victoria 4 Daz3D female model found in the book
and rigged her in Maya for this title. He also built and rigged the
“Runner” character which is used for most of the advanced examples.
His figures are used in everything from movie content to graphic
art. They have been used for the covers of 3D User, Popular Science
and Scientific American and have been used in the digital art
Exotique publications. He has also worked as a freelance commercial
animator where he has created medical and other types of animation
using mainly Maya. He has studied Maya rigging and experimented
with various techniques for years.
Kelly L. Murdock has been authoring computer books for many
years now and still gets immense enjoyment from the completed work.
His book credits include various 3D, graphics, multimedia, and Web
titles, including seven previous editions of his book, 3ds Max
Bible. Other major accomplishments include Edgeloop Character
Modeling for 3D Professionals Only also with Eric Allen, Maya 6
and 7 Revealed, LightWave 3D 8 Revealed, Poser 6 and 7 Revealed, 3D
Game Animation for Dummies, gmax Bible, Adobe Atmosphere Bible,
Master VISUALLY HTML and XHTML, JavaScript Visual Blueprint, and
co-authoring duties on two editions of the Illustrator Bible for
versions 9 and 10 and three editions of the Adobe Creative Suite
Bible.
Contributing Author Jared Fong has a profound ability for Maya
rigging. He brought us Chapters 15 and 17 as well as many of the
scripts included on the CD. He has been a major influence on the
rigging of the projects at BYU and part of the thinking that went
into this book. Jared is currently working at Pixar as a TD
resident.
Contributing Author Adam Sidwell has traveled the world
spreading his 3D talents. He has worked at such studios as Digital
Domain, ILM, Sony Imageworks, and Weta. He has presented at
Siggraph and is very proficient in the studies and methods of the
“back end” of the production pipeline. Adam contributed the
brilliance of Chapter 19, the “Pipeline in a Box.”
