(From the editor)
If you love animation then you're in for a treat!

Olivier Cotte has gone behind-the-scenes of 13 of the greatest short animations ever made, interviewing the directors and close collaborators who made each one, to offer us a unique guide to classic techniques from the masters of their crafts. Packed with beautiful, instructive illustrations and previously unpublished material (including story-boards, photos and hand-drawn sketches) and interspersed with interviews - this is an exceptional source of inspiration and knowledge for animators, students and fans alike.

Covering 13 winners of the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film:

Frank Film (Frank Mouris, Oscar 1973)
Le Chateau de sable (Co Hoedman, Oscar 1977)
