Acting and animation are highly creative processes. This book is divided into two parts: From film history we learn about the importance of actors and the variety of acting that goes into animation; then, we turn to the actor's point of view to describe the various techniques involved.
Written specifically for animation professionals instead of stage and movie actors, this book's 5th edition provides an essential primer for creating empathetic and dynamic character performance and, in the process, shows how the strongest storytelling structure works.
