About the Author
In 1997, Eric Keller returned to his roots in the visual arts when he began studying computer animation. A year later, he created his first professional animation for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Holiday Lectures on Science series using Maya 1.0 on a little blue SGI O2. From 1998 to 2005, Eric was a full-time scientific animator for HHMI. He has created animations for some of the world's leading scientists, including Stuart Schreiber, Huda Zoghbi, Eric Lander, and Nobel Laureate Tom Cech.
In 2004, Eric published his first tutorial in Highend Magazine on how to import and render macromolecular data with Maya. Since then, he has published two books, Introducing ZBrush and Maya Visual Effects: The Innovator's Guide.
Eric teaches at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects, where he also takes classes to deepen his understanding of both CG and traditional arts. In his spare time, he works as a freelance animator with an emphasis on scientific animation and character modeling.
