Best book to illustrate animated film-making September 23, 2008
This book gives an excellent overview on how to make an animated project. While it is geared to making shorts, it can be applied to feature films and TV episodes. I wholly recommend this book to anyone interested in animated film-making.
Great overview of the whole process November 20, 2007
This book is everything I hoped it would be and more. In a very clear an readable design it covers all the aspects of a 3d short animation process. This process can be used on any length of 3d animation. It's not a technical book but a must have for everyone who wants to make a solid animation but does not quite know where to begin. The whole inspired series is very useful, but this one is where it all begins. Also comes with a nice dvd with lots of inspiring shorts. Great!
Totally fantastic! May 13, 2007

This book has everything you need to know about making a short 3D film. (I'm making one about a box turtle (I love turtles!) and a butterfly using Hexagon and Carrara.) The CD containing 39 short films is icing on the cake. This book makes the best kind of teacher - you don't just learn from it, but are inspired by it!
 Great for the true beginner December 20, 2005

I bought this hoping that it would teach me how to create a short film. The story I already have, it's just the skills and schedule that I need. This book gave me a GENERAL IDEA but it wasn't specific enough. It would say, "then use your compositing softare to put the renders together." Ummm... How?
I know it wasn't meant to be a complete-all-included-only-this-needed kind of book, but even so...
I would say that unless you are a true beginner to this field, look for something else, but if you are a true beginner, it is excellent. It taught me alot and I am very VERY glad I bought this book.
3D Short Film Production is Fantastic August 22, 2005

It's a great book that I would recommend to anyone serious about creating their own Short Animated Film.
More informative than I could have ever imagined. It's everything you will learn at a 20,000 dollar a year university.
The included DVD is also filled with some great examples.
ENJOY and happy film making!
