Here is a rare homage to the art of classic 2–D animation and the
time–honored method of hand–drawing characters that come alive on the
silver screen. The creator of "The Simpsons" and "Futurama," reveals the
art of brilliant character design, backgrounds, and prop art in this
lavishly detailed handbook that unveils the complex secrets behind the
deceptively simple and universally loved Simpsons characters. With
creative insights, artists' sketches, helpful insider hints, and
step–by–step instructions, enter the imagination of "master doodler"
Matt Groening and receive some professional "how–to" advice from many of
the animators and directors who have made "The Simpsons" the
longest–running animated show and situation comedy in television
history. In our technological era when animation has become increasingly
digitalized, this unique handbook records the genesis of some of the
most extraordinary examples of the art of hand–drawn animated
characters.
