The Animator’s Survival Kit - DVD box set

Found out about this great resource recently…

The Animator’s Survival Kit: ANIMATED - a 16 DVD box-set by Richard Williams, triple Oscar winner and Director of Animation of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

It’s based on his (apparently) amazing book of the same title (minus the ANIMATED bit at the end!) and from the previews on the official site, it looks like it’s got a wealth of usefull information. Quite apart from the fact that Richard is hilarious and incredibly animated (forgive the pun!), so it’s good entertainment just to watch :)

Downside… £596 (incl. VAT) seems a bit steep even for 16 DVDs, but I guess it’s quite a good investment… I think for now I’ll just be getting the book :)

Just watching the previews for the DVDs has inspired me to get back into tradition animation - which I started getting into a while ago (1,2,3,4).

That’s it for now!
