ABSTRACT

Questions such as these initially inspired us to write Producing Animation. When we started our careers in the animation industry, there were few resources available that provided guidance to anyone interested in this highly creative and complex business. When searching for books to recommend to people interested on the topic, we quickly realized there wasn’t a suitable title out there. Although there were many well-written and useful books that discussed the technical process and art of animation, there were none that outlined the actual nuts and bolts of producing commercially focused content for major animation studios and/ or distributors. As this was a significant missing piece of the picture, we decided to use our combined knowledge and experience and take on the challenge of providing it.
