Superb book. Doesn’t overwhelm you with a super detailed and academic look at timing and all that stuff. Just gets straight to the point, all the skills you need to know with lovely examples of them. And the whole time inspires and encourages. Definitely my preferred animation book of the few excellent ones out there.
