| "I LOVE ANIMATION because it's the most collaborative art form there is. At its best, animation brings together the work of many people to create a single, unified whole - one that seems to have sprung into existence as a complete creation." - John Lasseter
The most brilliant story artwork created by Disney artists is lavishly and lovingly showcased in this rich volume, the first book in a new series - Walt Disney Animation Studios - The Archive Series. Among the luminaries included are Bill Peet, Burny Mattison, Joe Rinaldi, Ub Iwerks, Eric Goldberg, Marc Davis, Mel Shaw, Roger Allers, Joe Ranft, Chris Sanders, Hans Bacher, Elmer Plumer, Gaetan and Paul Brizzi, Erdman Penner, Ferdinand Horvath, Glen Keane, Brenda Chapman, Gustaf Tenggren, Ken Anderson, Andy Gaskill, Kay Neilsen, John Dunn, Earl Hurd, Webb Smith, and Carl Barks. The artwork - much of wich has never before been published - is displayed in its full glory with all the notes, flaws, and hole punches that were so much a part of the story development process. Story represents a rare opportunity to enjoy a glimpse into the truly spectacular trove of treasures from the Walt Disney Animation Research Library. |
