The Art of Flash Animation: Creative Cartooning

Mark Stephen Smith, “The Art of Flash Animation: Creative Cartooning” Publisher: Wordware Publishing | 2007 | ISBN: 1598220268 | English | PDF | 480 pages | 22.11 Mb

Part animation guide, part Flash manual, The Art of Flash Animation: Creative Cartooning provides a practical primer on classic, hand-drawn 2D screen animation as well as an introduction to using Flash for creating your own cartoons. Section I discusses the terms and techniques of hand-drawn animation, character design, and storyboards, while Section II covers scanning, digitizing your artwork into Flash, and setting up scenes.

There are few books out there that cover using Flash as traditional animation medium, and even fewer that are any good. The Art of Flash Animation is another book in the “not so good” column.
The fact that The “Art of Flash Animation Creative Cartooning” book came from a small publisher like Wordware means you don’t get a lot of the frills you’d expect in an animation book. The illustrations are a bit sparse and in black & white. There’s no CD of examples or finished files. A lot of the projects he mentions can be found on his website, which I wasn’t particularly impressed with; especially the audio on his personal cartoons.
The Flash instruction is also rather lacking. If you’ve never touched Flash before in your life, you might learn something. If you already have a working knowledge of the program, you won’t learn a thing.
All in all, it’s quite a bit of money to spend on such a small amount of learning.
