Tony White's Animator's Notebook: Personal Observations on the Principles of Movement

I bought it cause I want something different from "animator' survival kit" and I have to say that this book was a huge surpirse!Very good layout and it has a lot of well explained drawings...

I found this book to be very well done and it covers a lot that you wont see in other animation books. I have followed Tony White since I purchased his first book and then when he came up on the internet where he would share his thoughts and notes. I highly recommend this book to any one who wants to know about the real deal about animation. You can learn a lot from one of the masters of the art form. This is worth the price in so many ways. Thank You

This book has quickly become an easy quick reference for me at work. Though many of the principles are covered in The Animator's Survival Kit, this has won its place for its expanded observations on walks and runs in particular. Working in the game industry, you animate more walks and runs than you'd like to admit and overtime you can find yourself being very 'vanilla'. This book is a great reference to help you loosen up and inspire you to change it up a bit.As a teaching tool, it is great for narrowing in on specific details that are often neglected or done incorrectly. For example head movement during a run or walk.This is not, in my opinion, considered a 'core' book, however it is definitely on the highly recommended list.

Very informative. Love the exercises that are with each chapter to help explain the chapter so you understand it.

A must, really useful to learn animation :)
