Python Scripting - Hand Book For VFX Artists
About This Book
Learn Python Scripting From Real Life Examples
Learn how to create your own tools to speed up your workflow with the power of Python Scripting.
With the help of this guide, you can create your own tools in just 3 weeks. I shared my industry secrets, strategies I used to create tools that saved thousands of hours of production time. My tools got downloaded over 10K+ times on creative crash. If you are a CG Artist, who never wrote a line of code in your life this book is the best place to start learning how to code for VFX. I wish I had this book, when I first started. By the end of this book, you will have hands on experience writing 15+ tools and 10+ mini python modules (step by step instructions, and video tutorials included)
