The promise of revealing all the 3D Flash tricks is widely fulfilled and I think every intermediate to advanced Flash developer will enjoy it. Also the many color pictures and diagrams that you will find will greatly help you in better understanding the concepts being explained. … Highly recommended to everyone interested in the subject." (Lapo, gotoAndPlay, May, 2004)

About the authors

After studying theatre in London, then working for several years as an actor in the U.S., Todd Yard was introduced to Flash in 2000 and was quickly taken by how it allowed for both stunning creativity and programmatic logic application a truly left-brain, right brain approach to production and has not looked back. He now freelances as a Flash developer in New York City, creating both silly animations and utilitarian applications. His personal work and experimentation can be found at his website, 27Bobs.com.
