Summary: The Big Four
Comment: If you are an aspiring animator you have probably squeezed all you can out of Preston Blair. If "Illusion of Life" is too expensive or too heavy for you to lift, this is the book for you. One thing all three of these animation books have in common is they include pretty much everything you need to know about the fundamentals of animation. While all three books are excellent Tony White's may be the best balance of content and being a beautiful book to look at. The content contains the principals and industry insight you need to succeed in making a quality piece of animation. The book is fun to read and fun look at. The animation illustrations are very charming colorful and entertaining and reminds you of the reasons you became interested in animation in the first place. The flip animation in the corners of the pages are full color and really fun especially nice since the paper is the right thickness to give a good flip without the usual skip. This is one of the top books for you animator wannabees. If you can get your hands on the out of print Cawley/Korkis book "How to Create Animation" by Pioneer Press, and have these three others you will have every animation book for the aspiring animator you will ever need or likely want.

Summary: A bible for the animator
Comment: This book is one of the best all round books used to learn animation techniques; a perfect text for teachers. Animation techniques are illuminated from squash and stretch, to stop action puppet, to cell painting. Included is a great reference section for finding unique materials and building your own animation stand. This is more than a simple how to do manual. It is a companion to any future artist animator for it opens the reader to the sophisticated path of animation as tool articulate movements rather than simply as a squash and stretch manipulator of cartoon characters.

Summary: Perfect :)
Comment: OK.. So this is a bit bias.. But I have the pleasure of working with Tony in my 2D animation class. He is a great teacher and his book gave me a great understanding of animation and how I can apply these concepts to 3D. This is a great book to get started with! Good for 2D and 3D artists. :)
It's more than worth the price.
I just can't wait till his new book get published!
