Riassunto

Basics Animation: Stop-motion Animation teaches the skills required to develop as a creative stop-motion animator or articulated puppet maker. It explores how all the elements of film-making – camera work, design, colour, lighting, editing, music and storytelling – come together in this unique art form. Students will learn to use and exploit the particular types of movement, characters and stories that characterise stop-motion. The book is packed with tips and suggestions to help you get the most out of your own stop-motion films, accompanied by full-colour illustrations and case studies demonstrating how film-making masters through the years have used it in feature films, short films and TV series. Basics Animation: Stop-motion Animation also examines the evolution of stop-motion, from its almost accidental beginnings to a much-loved form of storytelling in its own right – one that continues to push boundaries after 110 years.

Recensione

'To say this book is a perfect companion for anyone interested in stop-motion at any level is a tremendous understatement. Even by taking just a cursory glance through the pages, you will find that the wide range of photographic examples alone make this book a must have ... As someone who has previously been a teacher in the medium, I am very excited to find a book that would make for a perfect textbook should I ever teach again.' - Mark Osborne, co-director of DreamWorks Animations Oscar-nominated Kung Fu Panda. --Animation World Network, 29/06/2010

'If you are interested in stop motion character animation - past, present or future - then Barry Purves' Basics Animation: Stop-motion is for you. Who better to guide us through the history of the medium, the techniques and process of filmmaking than master animator Purves (Screen Play) himself ... A good basic textbook for any student of the art form, and a great read for those of us who simply enjoy watching it.' - Jerry Beck --Cartoon Brew, 07/06/2010

'The much-anticipated book by the legendary animator/director Barry Purves has just been released to the world. This new book is filled with everything that all other stop motion books are missing. In a sense, this is the must-have book for the stop motion animator that wants to learn what it is to be a professional. This fine piece of literature is not a how-to shop guide like all other books that are on the market today, but it is more of an in depth look into the vast world of model animation where the reader will find inspiration, new ideas, and a wealth of knowledge that only a master of animation could provide.' --Pike Baker -- Stop-Motion Magazine, April 2010
