This book is recommended by animators all over the web. I’ve thought about going to animation school or taking a crash 2D animation course but my funds are limited so I purchased this book instead. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn the principles of animation. Once you have mastered this book, start creating your own flash cartoons and post them on the web for the world to see. I created this cartoon in ‘99 before I purchased this book. youtube dot com/watch?v=yIQ_dSgOCnk

Animation 1: Learn to Animate Cartoons Step by Step lives up to its title. It’s a good introduction to the concepts and techniques in animation “old school” style. Don’t look for techniques in CGI like Maya and Blender or for 2D animation using Photoshop or Toonz or Anime Studio or ToonBoom Animate. This is “nuts and bolts” take out the pencil and paper and draw. Liked the book – relatively inexpensive and the lessons were good and straightforward.

If you are looking for a small, comprehensive analysis of how to do animation, this is your book. Walter Foster is one of the best companies out there on drawing books, though I wouldn’t recommend them all. I highly recommend this one.
