Animator's Survival Kit: A Manual of Methods, Principles, and
Formulas for Classical, Computer, Games, Stop Motion, and
Internet Animators by Richard
Williams ISBN:
0-571-20228-4, 342 Pages,
2002 The definitive working
manual on animation, from the triple Academy
Award winning Director of
Animation of " Who Framed Roger
Rabbit".
Animation is one
of the hottest and most crea-tive areas of film-making today -
and the master animator who bridges the old generation and the
new is Richard Williams During his
more than forty years in the business,
Williams has been one of the true
innovators, and serves as the link between the golden age of
animation by hand and the new computer animation successes.
Perhaps even more important, though, has been his dedication
to passing along his knowledge to a new generation of
anima-tors so that they in turn can push the medium in new
directions.
In this book based
on his sold-out Animation Masterclasses
in the United States and across
Europe attended by animators from all the
major studios, Williams provides the
underlying principles of animation that every animator - from
beginning 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.
