The thinking process behind drawing, characters, composition and movement, narrative and adaptation are all fully examined in the latest title Drawing for Animation .

Aimed at students and those interested in entering the animation business, this book explores the pre-production work essential for producing great animation. It is supported by student exercises and includes varied contributions from pioneers in the industry, as well as contemporary practitioners.
