Over the years I always said one day I would own it, here in Taiwan it was nearly impossible to get a copy and I wasn't able to afford one from the U. If something is going to happen, people have been quite familiar with it, so they can prepare in advance.

This kind of motivation may be there, but I believe that one of their goals is to share their personal experiences selflessly. To make the audience seem to find the shadow of someone in real life, the emotions expressed by the animated characters must also make the audience feel that they are authentic. Personally, I really appreciated the tips and tricks used for animation, such as the arcs hand gesture on page 62, and the lines examples given in a square diagram on page 68. This is not an early Bday gift or late Christmas present, this is a gift from Bear to Bear, love Bear just because.

Along with the advice and information given by the book, what really tied it up in a bow-tied package was all of the charming artwork that really helped keep a fun pace for the audience.They explain the particular challenges of the animator trying to put across different story and character points.

An artist could represent the actual figure, if he chose, meticulously capturing its movements and actions. This book is a great reflection on the history, educational points and workings of animation, offering a lot of great advice for anyone in or out of school for it, and maybe even the passionate fanatic. In all regards, the book, The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation, by Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson, is an insightful read for any aspiring animator as it provides wisdom and experience from one of the most successful animation companies of all time.

If we are only obsessed with technology and cannot tell a good story, show a good character, a character, then even if we have powerful tools, It's just tangible and godless, unable to make truly great animation works. I loved the continuous flip book in the upper right hand corner of this tome, and I spent countless hours of my childhood looking at images of the Disney films I loved, and photographs of the people who made them. Of the many books on animation and Disney, The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation is probably the best.From Walt's Nine Old Men, basic principles, the many glimpses into the workings of the animators at Disney's during the Golden Age and more.
