About this product

Product Information

The definitive book on animation, from the Academy Award-winning animator behind Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Animation is one of the hottest areas of filmmaking today--and the master animator who bridges the old generation and the new is Richard Williams. During his fifty years in the business, Williams has been one of the true innovators, winning three Academy Awards and serving as the link between Disney's golden age of animation by hand and the new computer animation exemplified by Toy Story . Perhaps even more important, though, has been his dedication in passing along his knowledge to a new generation of animators so that they in turn could push the medium in new directions. In this book, based on his sold-out master classes in the United States and across Europe, Williams provides the underlying principles of animation that every animator--from beginner to expert, classic animator to computer animation whiz --needs. Urging his readers to "invent but be believable," he illustrates his points with hundreds of drawings, distilling the secrets of the masters into a working system in order to create a book that will become the standard work on all forms of animation for professionals, students, and fans.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

    An excellent product for teaching animation students the secrets of the art

    As a University student studying animation, it is vitally important to understand all the principles of animation in order to produce animation of the highest quality. This guide serves as a vital learning tool for budding animators who need the necessary skills to animate and animate well. From walk cycles to understanding the principles behind squash and stretch, this guide is an excellent teaching tool with clear diagrams and simple explanations which get straight to the point rather than dance around it with fancy words. As a first year student undertaking his Animation degree, I highly recommend this survival guide to any and all animation students interested in learning how to produce Disney level quality animation from one Disney's animators who has culminated the experiences ...

    Great resource to have for aspiring animators

    I am still in the midst of reading the book, but thus far I find the historical synopsis of Mr. Richard Williams' journey through his career quite fascinating. I look forward to completing the entire book and derive as much information as possible. I am very much anticipating reading more. Highly recommended!

    It was damaged

    When I got it it had a big tear through the first 10 pages and the cover. I don't know if this was a shipping problem or if they send us a used book.
