The trailer for Bolt is now on line. Over all I'm pretty happy with the way the trailer turned out. You can find it at the Disney website, but you'll have to look for it. (it's next to the screen in the middle on the lower right) The last 15 frames of one of my shots is in it. It's the shot just before he jumps over something:) Look for those frames here:

The Animation Survival Kit DVD
It looks like the Richard Williams book "The Animation Survival Kit" is being turned into a DVD. A trailer for the DVD just hit the tube:
Here's the website: http://www.theanimatorssurvivalkit.com/ It doesn't say when the DVD will be coming out, I guess we'll have to wait tell next week to find out.
I think the idea of a DVD is promising. The book is excellent, but it's hard to show moving examples in a book. I'm hoping that the DVD will be more interactive and will let you see what he's talking about.
The Animation Survival Kit is one of five books that I always recommend that my students get. It's one of the books that I feel should be on every animators bookshelf:
The Animator's Survival Kit
The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation
(It's good to see this one is still in print)
Cartoon Animation (The Collector's Series)
(I do prefer the tall paperback editions but this volume has all the books together.
Timing for Animation
(This is a must read for any animator.)
Animation: From Script to Screen
(I put this one on the list because of Chapter 3 where he talks about getting into the animators state of mind.)
There are many others that are good, but these are the five standard ones. If there's something I missed please feel free to leave me feedback.
They've updated their website, it looks like the set will be sold for just under $1000 USD but only if you buy it before November. No word on what region it is or if it's in PAL.
Thanks to Brew for pointing it out.
