Shake...Who knows this program?

[imseth]

I live in a small town and nobody knows anything about this software and I am having a hard time learning it. Does anybody have any good resources that I can learn from?

I found this to be a really excellent tutorial:

And don't forget the one included with the program.

I just got certified (Yipppeee!!!) and I studied Paolini's book
and the included tutorial, as Mr. Hollywood mentioned.
The combo was excellent.

Now I'm going to wade deep into Steve Wright's "Digital Compositing
for Film and Video" and Apple's "Encyclopedia of Visual Effects".
Both are mostly Shake-oriented. This stuff is fun!
