Nancy Beiman

Hello, all. So you want to know about me? I am a professional cartoonist and illustrator who has lived and worked in England, France, Germany, Denmark,Australia and the USA. I've worked for major animation studios and also run my own company. Lately I've discovered that I prefer teaching to working in the studio system and have also become a book illustrator. I am teaching storyboard at Sheridan College in Oakville, Ontario.My first book PREPARE TO BOARD (Focal Press, 2007), is the standard text on storyboarding for feature and short animated films. A second edition has just been published in 2012 and contains much new material, including work by some of my students at Sheridan. My second book, ANIMATED PERFORMANCE, was published in July, 2010 by AVA Press.

A new and greatly expanded edition of Animated Performance will be published in 2015 by Bloomsbury Press.
