Publisher's Synopsis
These progressive drawings from the Disney Archives provide insights into each stage of the creative collaboration essential to every Disney production. Locked away for decades in the cavernous archives of Walt disney productions, most of these works were never intended to be seen by the public - they were simply necessary steps in the process of creating entertainment value in a radically different medium. Yet the character and story sketches, layouts, animation drawings, backgrounds, effects animation and cel setups reproduced in this volume represent some of the most extraordinary artwork produced this century. Arranged chronologically, these facsimile-quality illustrations are accompanied by historical information on each work and a complete annotated bibliography on animation.
