Product Description

Synopsis

"Art in Motion: Animation Aesthetics" is the first comprehensive examination of the aesthetics of animation in its many forms. It overviews the relationship between animation studies and media studies on a larger scale, then focuses on specific aesthetic issues concerning flat and dimensional animation, full and limited animation, and new technologies. The book contains a series of studies on abstract animation, audiences, representation and institutional regulators. The first half of "Art in Motion: Animation Aesthetics" overviews the relationship between animation studies and media studies on a larger scale, then focuses on specific aesthetic issues concerning two-dimensional and three-dimensional, limited and full animation and new technologies. The second half contains a series of studies on particular topics, including abstract animation, audiences, representation and institutional regulators. "Art in Motion" is an essential textbook for all students of Animation, Media Studies, Film/TV Studies and Art Education. Updated by the author, this valuable work becomes still more relevant for animation studies students.

Format:Paperback
Does exactly what it says on the tin. A very good introduction into animation studies discussing all its forms, practices and ideas. Furniss has a wide knowledge of animation and admits to those areas which she feels she is lacking in and allows for further study. It felt to me that the author has a good understanding of where animation has come from but does not really tread into the dangerous territory of where animation might go.

Animation is not just Disney! 27 Aug 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This book exposes you to many different types of animation along with traditional animation. I had taken a class on this subject with the author of the book and learned alot about the different kinds of animation. I highly recommend that that you watch some of the animation used as examples in book to get a better understanding of the topics discussed.
Great starting reference 4 April 2012
By Aurora - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a good one to have as a starting reference and can help guide new animators into seeing things a little more clearly. It is also helpful for more experienced animators to expand on their knowledge or just review a few things. Overall well written with clear examples that can easily be looked up online.
