| 3D Print and Illustration for 2D Artists: Volume I
 Most video professionals approach LightWave and other 3D programs without a background or understanding of print. Yet eventually, all 3D artists are asked to create artwork for print. Most print artists find high-end 3D programs perplexing, but want to use 3D tools for specific tasks only. Print artists need an introduction to a high-end 3D program that will help them quickly get what they need out of it. 3D artists need an understanding of how print works as well as an understanding of what to do to make their 3D images appropriate and even ideal for print.
Print for LightWave Artists will help Graphic artists learn how to get into and out of LightWave 3D quickly with the images that they want to use in their every day graphics programs. 3D artists will learn all about how print works, as well as how to create an image for print that will impress print clients with a product that will save them hours of time in graphics programs. This DVD includes a section walking through the most commonly needed 3d image for 2d graphic designers - 3d type. The graphic design buyer will be able to quickly get into and out of LightWave 3d with the results and the image that they need.

Artist Profile (alpha)
Brad Krause is a leading freelance artist for print, illustration and design working in Michigan. He graduated from UW Eau Claire in 1988 with a degree in graphic design. Not being a graphic designer, he quickly plummeted to the bottom of the print design heap and worked in print production for six years, preparing other people's artwork to be printed on plastic packaging and boxes. In the meantime he practiced his airbrush, drafting, and inking skills. Buying his first Mac quickly landed him a job in a graphic design studio as an illustrator and designer, and he's been doing graphic design, illustration, web, technical writing, and print production ever since. He acquired LightWave with version 5.0 when it came out for the Macintosh. During the day he runs a graphic design studio for a point-of-purchase company and in the evening he works on freelance 3D projects. You can see some samples of his work at his web site, http://www.radiance-media.com.
