Rating: Summary: MUST HAVE BOOK FOR STUDENTS AND PROFESSIONALS Review: This is the book I was planning on creating but Richard Williams beat me to the punch. I am a pro animator and animation instructor (teaching At The Center For Character Animation in Levittown, NY) and I highly recommend this book; a wonderful informative bible of animation information from one of the very best in the business. I have made this A mandatory book for all our students. Basically, there are thousands of dollars worth of information crammed into this under 300+ page book. To the point, clear and concise, this gem is terrific for Cartoon animators and a definite necessity for computer animators. Mr. Williams book is The MUST HAVE out of all the other animation books on the marketplace. Read it from cover to cover, then read it again and again. A+++++++
Rating: Summary: The Animator's Survival Kit: A Manual of Methods, Principles Review: This is the one book to bind them all, no animator's library could be anywhere near complete without it.
Clear, consise writing backed up by drawings that only on a true master can achieve - there is nothing more to say - if you are into animation you must have this book - end of argument - end of story!
Rating: Summary: A must have! Review: When I bought this book I wasn't to sure how many times I was going to open it.. I have had this book for a few months now.. and it is one of the most used books in my library. I create 3D animation and the information in this book is amazing.. all I have to say is WALK CYCLE... If there is any animation book to buy.. buy this one!
