Review Quote "This is a refreshing take on writing that does not get bogged down in formatting but focuses on structure, story development and in-depth story and character analysis. The benefit of this book is that it doesnt present writing as a series of rules to follow, per se, but as a guideline of things to consider. The examples are plenty and drive the point home easily and directly." -- Brian Larson, Animation Program Director, Rochester Institute of Technology School of Film & Animation, USA "A thought-provoking insight into the nuances of animation script writing.
