| animation gesture drawing: Quozl Alan Dean Foster, 2014-11-04 Rabbitlike aliens from outer space colonize Earth during humankind’s Second World War in a delightfully funny and thought-provoking science fiction adventure The Quozl just need somewhere to call home. A gentle race of extraterrestrial rabbits, they have a propensity for reproduction that has left their home planet, Quozlene, dangerously overpopulated, and in their search for greener and less-crowded pastures, they have discovered the perfect place to start over: the third planet away from a healthy, warming sun. What they don’t realize is that this world they call Shiraz is already inhabited by a species of violent sentient creatures known as humans. But there’s no going back now. In the midst of the brutal and helpfully distracting global conflict the Shirazians call World War II, the colony ship lands undetected, and the space rabbits immediately go into hiding. But a secret like the Quozl can be concealed for only so long, especially when their numbers start to increase and certain rebellious members of the long-eared society decide the time is ripe to claim their place in a world they believe is rightfully theirs. One of the most admired and prolific authors in the science fiction arena, Alan Dean Foster will delight readers who hunger for something different with this funny, thoughtful, and wildly inventive novel of first contact and coexistence.

| animation gesture drawing: Animation Masterclasses: From Pencils to Pixels Tony White, 2022-11-17 Today, it is commonly believed that if you learn software, you can become an animator. Yet nothing could be further from the truth. Master animators are trained and not born. Software, as is the humble pencil, is merely yet another tool through which an animator can apply their knowledge. However, neither software nor pencils give you that knowledge, nor do they do the work for you. If you place a fully trained master animator on a computer, or give them a pencil, they’ll astound you with their mastery. However, if you put a nontrained animator on a computer, all you will have is a technician creating moving objects ・ as you’ll see all over YouTube and other video platforms. This book teaches you exactly how to become a Master Animator--whether you ultimately plan to use pencils, computers, drawing tablets or rigged characters. It’s a complete course, being a collection of 48 masterclasses gleaned from the author’s 50 years of experience of top-level animating, teaching, and filmmaking. It will also train you in the value and application of observational gesture drawing. This book of masterclasses by a master of the art, Tony White, is entirely designed to be THE definitive reference book for students learning how to make things move well as well as how to create films once you know how to do so. A book for everyone: For home-based, self-study students : It is a perfect manual to take you from raw beginner to proven animated filmmaker. For full-time students : It is an ideal companion to supplement your full-time educational studies, which, no doubt, is overly based on software technology. For current animation professionals : It is a comprehensive archive of animation tips and techniques that will enable you to take your work to the next level. For current animation educators and instructors : It is a book that can be the ultimate curriculum and study program, enabling your own students to become the master animators of today and tomorrow. |
