Free Animated Life: A Lifetime of tips, tricks, techniques and stories from a Disney Legend
Floyd Norman, a Disney Legend, has many stories to share. He has a very positive attitude in life and it comes across in this wonderful book about his times working as a Disney animator as well as his other careers.
By disneykaren
An Animated Life is part autobiography, part guide to being an animator. Floyd Norman has worked at Disney studio, and with Pixar. He's run his own company and did the Mickey Mouse syndicated comic strip for awhile.
The book is full of his personal stories from the trenches. He worked in the Disney Studio as things were changing and worked on films like Jungle Book, Toy Story and The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, among others. He also spends a good chunk of the book instructing younger animators with the lessons he's learned along the way. Lessons like how important story is, and taking risks.
Mr. Norman seems like a very amiable person, and he never seeks to stooping to dishing dirt, even though he's probably got some stories. His willingness to be a mentor to a younger generation and to pass on his wisdom is a beautiful thing to see. Recommended for Disney animation fans and aspiring animators.
I was provided a review copy by Focal Press and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for letting me review this marvelous book.
