Cracking Animation: The Aardman Book of 3-D Animation

A lovely book showing the history of Aardman and some behind the scenes information. From the original Aardman animation through to the Wallace and Gromit movies, it's all covered. It's also a nice big book (silly as that sounds) so you can see the illustrations and photos easily. One to keep!

Excellent book with interesting history of stop motion and great hints and tips on technique etc. Very pleased and recommend.

Great book for a present

Arrived on time and exactly as described. Thank you.

Bought as part of the reading list for university. Really pleased with the price.

Loved the information. Great read.

The perfect gift for my budding filmmaker son!

A suprisingly informative, enthusiastic and fun introduction to the world of animation. I have used this book to great effect teaching animation to people from three yrs. old to thirty three! Each chapter is clearly articulated and lavished with large colour illustrations from the films we all know and love. The deatil of lip-synching, model making, story-boadrding and set building as well as the fundamentals of animating are communicated in such a clear and enthusiastic way, it is hard not to catch the animating bug! Great all round book, highly recommended.

Actual book is great and very informative but I was given a damaged copy with creases on the cover and spine. Given the way the book was packed, I don’t think the damage occurred during shipping but was already damaged 😤 Would be nice to be partially refunded for buying a damaged copy.

Un libro maravilloso, simplemente genial, es muy útil para quienes les gusta la animación y se estan iniciando

Excellent resource for animation studen.

It’s a brilliant book for the price. Very inspiring to know as how the Ardman animation studios began and evolved to couch a heights!

Colorful, rich in information, a tutorial for anyone who has an interest in creating their own animations on the level of Nick Parks.
