known to be the gold standard for OpenGL, the 'Orange Book' is
considered to be the gold standard for the OpenGL Shading Language.
With Randi's extensive knowledge of OpenGL and GLSL, you can be assured
you will be learning from a graphics industry veteran. Within the pages
of the second edition you can find topics from beginning shader
development to advanced topics such as the spherical harmonic lighting
model and more." —David Tommeraasen, CEO/Programmer, Plasma Software "This
will be the definitive guide for OpenGL shaders; no other book goes
into this detail. Rost has done an excellent job at setting the stage
for shader development, what the purpose is, how to do it, and how it
all fits together. The book includes great examples and details, and
good additional coverage of 2.0 changes!" —Jeffery Galinovsky, Director of Emerging Market Platform Development, Intel Corporation "The
coverage in this new edition of the book is pitched just right to help
many new shader-writers get started, but with enough deep information
for the 'old hands.'" —Marc Olano, Assistant Professor, University of Maryland  Written by a matchmoving expert, this book is much more than a
technical primer. It helps you think like a pro so that you can find
the right solution for your matchmoves, no matter how tricky. You’ll
also find coverage of tasks that commonly go hand-in-hand with
matchmoving, along with advice on the contributions you can make on the
set of a live-action shoot. Whether you’re a student or professional, Matchmoving: The Invisible Art of Camera Tracking gives you the knowledge and perspective you need to quickly and successfully solve every matchmove.
Coverage includes:
- Understanding how matchmove programs work
- Perspective matching
- Getting optimal 2D tracking data
- Calibrating/solving cameras
- Using automatic tracking
- Fitting matchmoves into a CG set
- Mastering matchamation techniques
- Modeling from matchmoves
