About the Author
Alessandro Straccia holds a bachelor's degree in Advertising and Marketing from the Methodist University of São Paulo and a Technical Degree in Computer Science from ETE Lauro Gomes of São Bernardo, Brazil. He began developing an interest in Creative Development at a very young age, using his dad's Apple II to create 2D graphics using the Logo language and adding some interactivity using BASIC language. Some years later, Alessandro took his first steps in 3D using 3D Studio and POV-Ray and began working with more professional languages such as C and Pascal.
