Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edtion. 36 Un-numbered pages. Covers show light wear. Interior text and Illustration pages are clean, white, and unmarked. Included is a condensed version of an unpublished biography of Frederic Remington and Catalogues of Remington's Paintings and Bronzes. Also included is brief biog…raphy of Charles M. Russell by J. Frank Dobie and Catalogues of Russell's Paintings and Bronzes. No date is given for this Exhibition. The Gilcrease Museum was founded in 1949 as a private museum by Tulsa oilman Thomas Gilcrease (1890-1962), who amassed the nation's most comprehensive collection of art of the American West, as well as major collections of historical documents and artifacts. American art historian Richard Saunders once called Gilcrease Museum a kind of Smithsonian Institution of the American West. Although a powerful tribute, Saunders's comment only hints at the museum's ongoing impact and influence. There are fifteen black and white glossy photographs of Remington and Russell's works. Size: 5 1/2" X 8 1/4".

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. To make great animation, you need to know how to control a whole world: how to make a character, how to make that character live and be happy or sad. You need to create four walls around them, a landscape, the sun and moon - a whole life for them. You have to get inside that puppet and first make… it live, then make it perform. Susannah Shaw provides the first truly practical introduction to the craft skills of model animation. This is a vital book in the development of model animation which, following the success of Aardman's first full-length film, Chicken Run, is now at the forefront of modern animation. Illustrated in full colour throughout you are shown step by step how to create successful model animation. Starting with some basic exercises, you will learn about developing a story, making models, creating set and props, the mechanics of movement, filming, postproduction and how to set about finding that elusive first job in a modern studio. Susannah Shaw is Programme Development Manager for the Animated Exeter festival. She was head of the Bristol Animation Course from 1996 to 2000 at the University of the West of England and former camera assistant at Aardman (working on 'A Close Shave' among other films). The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
