Summary: Student
Comment: As a student of animation and illustration Dream Worlds is a must have. The book is full of useful information about compostition, color, and lighting as well as fun anecdotes about the author's experience working in the Disney company.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: A fantastic book
Comment: Some very rare production designs that could be only described as jaw-dropping!
But beware - a large part of the book is dedicated to Mr Bacher's teaching on crafting good production design and there are plenty of illustrations that doesn't have anything to do with actual animated films.

Summary: Preproduction for Animation
Comment: This is a great book for any art student wanting to get into preproduction for film or animation. This is the bar, industry standard. I found it to be very helpful in sharping my own portfolio.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Brilliant! As insightful as a book gets, yet a work of art.
Comment: Hans Bacher has created a wonderful, insightful and beautiful book, which is a work of art in its own right. Yet, it IS an instructional book on the process of Production Design for animation. Whether you are a student of animation, a film aficionado, or a working industry professional, you will find something new to think about and much to appreciate on every page.
The images are clear, and both appropriately chosen to illustrate Mr. Bacher's points and serve as coffee table worthy art. His precise and yet easy way of presenting the subject of Production Design is a fast read, while remaining, educational, interesting, and enjoyable all the way through. Well worth the investment.

Summary: A tremendous resource for animators
Comment: I've been looking for a book like this for years! I've been able to find some great books about the principles of moving an animated character around and the "Art of"-type of books about a particular movie can be very inspiring and educational in their own right, but a book that deals with the thought process that goes into the production design of an animated film is long overdue. I wish it could have delved deeper into the more theoretical "nuts and bolts" of things like setting up camera shots for both 2D and 3D animation--I guess I'm looking for something more technical, where this book still has a "coffee table" feel to some of the individual chapters on particular films--but it's already had a big impact on the way I lay out scenes in my own work. I have a feeling this one is going to be on my drawing table for a long time!
