The Animators Survival Kit

[Olly]

Is this a good animating book because I just won it on eBay it sounds good but i want to make shure?

[Inglor]

I heard good things about other extentions in the series

The 'Bible' of the animation world, this would be perfect in assisting any aspiring animator in their development or providing a fun way to learn drawing skills for anyone, it is a 'manual of methods, principles and formulas for classical, computer, games, stop motion and internet animators' that is easy to follow and understand. The book is in near perfect condition, never been used due to a change of heart in which course i wanted to study at university.

That is what the description said.

I'm planning on getting it soon, it's supposed to be very comprehensive. AGH reccomends it frequently.

Yay

You've inspired me to buy it too!!!

I've got that book too. It really is great for animators, the most important thing I learned was how to space your frames, for more realistic movement. Really worth buying.

It's a very nice book.

My uni recommends it for all the animators that go in.

I have my own copy somewhere. It's a very good read, and contains enough tidbits of information to get your head arround all the nuances of animating. But it does require your drawing skills to be up to scratch before you jump in, and requires an intelligence not seen in the common Newgrounds chimp.

Very good book. But not for the n00bhearted
