WALT DISNEY'S SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS: AN ART IN ITS MAKING (A Disney Miniature)
To coincide with the video premiere of Disney's very first animated classic, here is the ultimate volume on the masterpiece for every devoted fan and collector. Like the film it celebrates, this exquisite book is a landmark of its type. 192 pages of full-color and black-and-white photographs.
Customer Review: Coffee Table Book with Substance
This book offers a clear and concise introduction to the development of Walt Disney's first full-length animated feature. The book's use of stills, roughs, and concept art vividly illustrate much of the "magic" that goes into making an animated film. Not only that, but the book's incorporation of technical details provides enough "insider information" to appeal to those wanting to know more about the how of animation. In fact, I used the book's section on the multiplane camera to introduce the invention's importance to an introductory class in animation. It worked wonders! Also nicely developed in the book is how Snow White set the production and narrative standards for the Disney's subsequent films. It's nice to see a coffee table book with substance!
Customer Review: Gorgeous artwork; good intro to animation process
I loved the artwork and descriptions of the animation process. (The display of the art is organized to also help explain the process.) Also "behind the scenes" recollections of how the movie was made as well as a discussion on how to conserve, and prepare for sale, animation artwork. This can be equally appreciated by those with serious or casual interest in animation art.
