Autodesk 3ds Max is Autodesk's premier design visualization platform. It offers world-class state-of-the-art technology for creating photo-realistic "still" renderings and desktop animations. While it includes its own tools for 2D and 3D Modeling, Autodesk 3ds Max can also work with geometry imported from many other applications.
Autodesk 3ds Max is a robust and powerful program that can be challenging to learn. This textbook provides a thorough introduction to Autodesk 3ds Max that will help new users make the most of this sophisticated application, as well as broaden the horizons of existing, self-taught users.
The practices in this book are geared towards real world tasks encountered by the primary users of Autodesk 3ds Max: professionals in Architecture, Interior Design, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Product Design industries.
