Summary of The Simpsons Handbook: Secret Tips from the Pros (Simpsons (Harper))

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.
