Summary: The Animator's Survival Kit
Comment: Along with the Career guide this book will give any prospective Animator a great founding and help along the way. Another big smile on Christmas morning.
Customer Rating:
Summary: The best animation book so far
Comment: There are a million books who teach you how to start to animate (making bouncing balls, etc) - but this is the one that may actually take you further. It doesn't only explain how animation works in the movie, but also in real life - what does it mean to be an animator. Excellent book and very reasonably priced.
Customer Rating:
Summary: I wouldn't recommed this book to anyone
Comment: Animation is now done in 3-D this book is dated.
The book I have on by Don Bluth were much more elaborate on the animnation process then this book. The drawings are primative and don't offer much of the way of substance you can take them at face value.
If you like stick figures you might like this book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: An indispensable reference
Comment: This a must-purchase for the starting animator. I read The Illusion of Life first, which was a lot of words and theory but fewer walk-throughs (though you should buy that, too!). Get it, you won't be disappointed.
Customer Rating:
Summary: easy to follow, with great examples
Comment: this was the textbook for my principles of animation I class, and it was an immense help. if I was ever confused about how to liven up an animation, or make a movement more believable, I could look in the book for an explanation of a walk, run, jump, or any of a number of movements and get an example of the keyframes at the very least.
while it doesn't sit down and explain the 12 principles of animation in a section, it does end up covering the essentials in an easy to understand way.
my instructor put it this way "The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation is the old testament of animation, and this book, is the new testament."
