Aardman Animations: The Best Publication on Stop-Motion Animation

Aardman Animations needs no introduction - they are one of the most successful animation studios, with blockbusters such as Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run, and Shaun the Sheep under their belt. If you’re an Aardman enthusiast, a student of animation, or simply someone who wants to try making an animated film, you’ll find Cracking Animation entertaining, inspiring, and essential.

The revised edition includes two new chapters that provide valuable insights into the development and teamwork involved in major animated productions. Chapter 7 uses The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists! as an example. This chapter delves into how teams work together to create a cohesive production. Chapter 8 gives exclusive behind-the-scenes information about Aardman’s most recent feature film, Shaun the Sheep the Movie.

This publication is packed with practical, fully illustrated step-by-step instructions for all elements of stop-motion animation. It’s quite simply the best publication on stop-motion animation out there!

“I wish this book had been written in the Seventies when I started experimenting with animation.”
