商品描述

Today, it is commonly believed that if you learn software, you can become an animator. Yet nothing could be further from the truth. Master animators are trained and not born. Software, as is the humble pencil, is merely yet another tool through which an animator can apply their knowledge. However, neither software nor pencils give you that knowledge, nor do they do the work for you. If you place a fully trained master animator on a computer, or give them a pencil, they'll astound you with their mastery. However, if you put a nontrained animator on a computer, all you will have is a technician creating moving objects ・ as you'll see all over YouTube and other video platforms.

This book teaches you exactly how to become a Master Animator ・ whether you ultimately plan to use pencils, computers, drawing tablets or rigged characters. It's a complete course in its own right, being a collection of 48 masterclasses gleaned from the author's 50 years of experience of top-level animating, teaching and filmmaking. It will also train you in the value and application of observational gesture drawing. This book of masterclasses by a master of the art, Tony White, is entirely designed to be THE definitive reference book for students learning how to make things move really well ・ as well as how to create films once you know how to do so.

A book for everyone:

For home-based, self-study students: It is a perfect manual to take you from raw beginner to proven animated filmmaker.

For full-time students: It is an ideal companion to supplement your full-time educational studies, which, no doubt, is overly based on software technology.

For current animation professionals: It is a comprehensive archive of animation tips and techniques that will enable you to take your work to the next level.

For current animation educators and instructors: It is a book that can be the ultimate curriculum and study program, enabling your own students to become the master animators of today and tomorrow.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

如今，人們普遍認為，如果你學會了軟體，就可以成為一名動畫師。然而，這種觀點與事實相去甚遠。優秀的動畫師是經過訓練的，而非天生的。軟體，就像謙卑的鉛筆一樣，只是動畫師應用知識的另一種工具。然而，軟體和鉛筆都無法給你知識，也無法替你完成工作。如果你讓一位經過全面訓練的動畫大師使用電腦或鉛筆，他們的技藝將令你驚嘆。然而，如果你讓一位未經訓練的動畫師使用電腦，你只會看到一個在YouTube和其他視頻平台上創作移動物體的技術人員。

本書將教你如何成為一位「動畫大師」，無論你最終打算使用鉛筆、電腦、繪圖板還是骨骼角色。這是一門完整的課程，收錄了作者50年的頂級動畫、教學和電影製作經驗中總結出的48個大師課程。它還將教你價值和應用觀察手勢繪畫。這本由藝術大師Tony White撰寫的大師課程書籍，完全設計成學生學習如何使物體真正動起來的「定義性參考書」，以及在掌握這一技能後如何創作電影。

這是一本適合所有人的書籍：

對於在家自學的學生：這是一本完美的手冊，可以將你從初學者變成經驗豐富的動畫製片人。

對於全日制學生：這是一本理想的輔助教材，可以補充你全日制教育學習中過於依賴軟體技術的部分。

對於現有的動畫專業人士：這是一個包含動畫技巧和技巧的全面檔案，可以讓你的工作提升到更高的水平。

對於現有的動畫教育工作者和教師：這是一本可以成為最終課程和學習計劃的書籍，使你的學生成為今天和明天的動畫大師。
