Recenzii

"Digital Costume Design and Collaboration will be a valuable addition to the books used for teaching young designers because it takes the processes and functions of practical design into the digital world with easy-to-follow guides and instructions. The book will be particular useful for theatre programs with a limited costume design course offerings. (...) The content will also serve veteran designers who would like to move into a digital world but find themselves a little intimidated or unsure of where to start."
- Laura Beene, Utah Valley University, USA
