Traditional animation systems of inter changeable characteristics, predictable story telling and limited movements are being overturned by a new generation of character designers who are redefining the craft. The 64 page, full colour book gives in-depth information on the creators, presenting insight into their process of creation, from the first sketch and visual reference to the finished character in its unique visual system. 

Pictoplasma’s second volume of the Characters in Motion series documents the latest developments of this revolution in a DVD and book set, which showcases over 50 forward-looking, stylistically outstanding studios, animators and designers in three hours of programming.

The Characters in Motion Vol 2 DVD is a compilation of over 60 films by 50 international studios, artists and designers, divided into 3 programmes: characters in narration, characters in rhythm and characters in motion. 

The speciel selection menu additionally allows you to sort the 200+ minutes of animation by creator, evolutionary stage or style. This means you can browse the content according to criteria such as “newborn organisms ” or “all 3D”. Of course you can also navigate directly to each individual artist/studio where, in many cases, you’ll find additional animations and bonus tracks…
