I would like to thank the people without whom this book would not exist.

The staff at Packt; Rachel Gottsch, my English teacher in ninth, tenth, and tenth grades; Gary Demos who encouraged me; Jeffrey Marcus and Gary Brown of UCSB who gave me the access and freedom to do computer graphics; Ton Roosendaal for Blender and Betsy Brown, puppeteer extraordinaire, who got me started in this direction.
