You must read this book before go to animation school. Very fresh look at "what" and "why" different animators do in animation industry.
I think this book have only one small minus - ugly illustrations.

I got this book on the personal recommendation of the author and what can I say that hasn't already been said by other reviewers! David Levy has written an exemplary guide to the world of animation. Not only does he offer his own experiences, he also draws on veterans from all over the industry for their advice. The result is a very refined and concise guide to not only the industry, but also animating in general. Every sentence has been written with a purpose, so the book is best enjoyed over several days or weeks.
There is no need for me to analyse this book further. If you have even a slight interest in animation either as a career or out of curiosity, go and buy a copy for yourself, you will not be disappointed.

I buy this book without having a clear idea of what to expect from it.
After reading the first chapter I realize that this book was one of my best choices and help me a lot in my business life even when at that time I'm was not an animator.
If you had the doubt about if get into this art-industry field fits on you. This book let you know if becoming an animation artist is your choice for life.
Easy and fun to read, David share generously his experience and knowledge about industry, networking, career path and all those animation wise advices.
You'll love this book, Is for me a kind of Animation Artist gospel in the animation Bible.
