If you're interested in visual effects producing this is the book. Covers primarily the budgeting, scheduling and workflow issues but also covers basics of the technical issues along with pros and cons. 377 pages



Update:
Another book to check out is The VES Handbook of Visual Effects which was released end of July 2010.  More info.

  3. Schools in Australia - Unfortunately I don't know of any although I'm sure there are.

    Schools Posting has some schools here in the U.S. and online.

    Hopefully someone else might be able to respond.
    You might check with some of VFX companies there and see if there are any recommendations or if they have interns, etc from nearby schools.
