As an animator and one of the biggest Disney fans out there, this big has everything you want to know and need to know about how the Disney animation process is done. This book along with the Art of Disney and The Illusion of Life are a great combo together.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book to be treasured for a lifetime, April 28, 2011

This review is from: Treasures of Disney Animation Art (Hardcover)

This is a huge book. It's not the kind of book that you can read in bed at night. As mentioned in the preface, the size chosen matched as closely as possible the dimensions used by Disney animators. The paper is thick and the printing is gorgeous. I love seeing all of the sketches, final art and design decisions of some of my favorite animations. This book was printed and published to last a lifetime. I'd have to say this is my favorite Canemaker title, not for his text (which is minimal), but for the almost 300 large pages of artwork. A keeper.

I bought this book for him when I was 17 (now 46). My dad, Saul Mandel, was the designer who created the Illustrated "Jolly Green Giant" back in the 1960's. I though he would love this book. I don't think he ever even opened it. If it wasn't his work, he just wasn't interested. I loved this book. It shows how all the illustrations were done. Great reference material.
