Whether you're a novice making your first film or a more advanced animator looking to strengthen an existing concept, Animating Short Stories provides practical techniques to bring your story to life. Each technique is clearly and beautifully illustrated covering different animation mediums; including 2D, 3D and stop-motion.

It takes readers step by step through:

- how to develop story ideas
- to prepare for creative obstacles
- scriptwriting and storyboarding
- each chapter provides clear examples and full colour images from award-winning student films as well as commercial examples from big studios

In addition, a companion website includes a specially created short film demonstrating key visual storytelling and narrative techniques alongside the student movies featured throughout. Also included are documents pertaining to sample production schedule and shotlists, screenplay templates, style guides and cheat sheets.
