Recenzii

An excellent and contemporary survey of the genre.
Clear, concise, well illustrated and appropriate for an introduction to the subject.
I think it will fill in the gaps in my students' knowledge. It is good to see a general book that is not software specific.
Bite size information, easy to digest and with great examples. Glossary and timeline at the back of the book was very useful ... Images are well presented, text is easily read.
I think the book is a work of art on its own. The graphic layout is really something.
I thought the book covered the subject very comprehensively, highlighting some of the key breakthroughs with this technology in the industry.
The book is exactly what I had been hoping for, as it provides a solid overview on the history of digital animation.
Now living in a digital era, Andrew Chong's book offers up-to-date and valuable information on current technology and digital production methods. The book takes you through the history of animation production to current trends and innovative methods - information that would be of extreme value to any student wishing to work in today's animation industry.
I think the book is a good starting point for a beginners' course on the subject. The historical approach is really well documented.
