Final message from the author

First of all, thank you for taking the time to go on this journey with me. Hopefully, this book has done its job and taught you about Element 3D, the methodologies and thought processes, and its applications. As more people learn 3D and more companies (such as Video Copilot) develop 3D applications, the market evolves and grows. You have just made the community one person larger. Help! Teach others, post your new techniques and tricks on message boards, and continue this ever-evolving synergy of the 3D community.

As a parting piece of advice, I'll give you the same line my original mentor (Rick Vertolli at CSU Chico) gave me, "Don't ever create a story around an effect; create your effect for the story!". Seems obvious, but as we learn new techniques and tricks, we have to resist the urge to throw them in for no good reason on a project. If it contributes to the "big idea" of a project, go for it! If it doesn't, store it, guard it; keep it like a child until it's ready to be unleashed on the world. Else, you'll just be known as a one trick pony. Don't stop learning, and happy 3Deity-ing!
