A specialist in computer graphics, animation, and design who operates his own design and animation studio, Mortier details the latest version of the Adobe After Effects software package. He looks at plug-in effects available and Puffin Designs' Commotion, and presents projects to help learn the intricacies. He suggests that readers who have no experience either with the software or with videographics and multimedia in general begin with something simpler. The CD contains a trial version of the package, over 200 animations that can be incorporated into projects, and other goodies. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
