Intro -- Acknowledgements -- Contents -- The Child Receives a Lesson in a Twentyfourth of a Second -- Pioneers -- Moments In The Early History of Animation -- Emile Cohl -- Winsor McCay -- Innovators -- Lotte Reiniger -- The Fleischers -- Walt Disney -- Taking the Mickey -- Broadening Horizons -- Termite Terrace -- Tex Avery -- Chuck Jones -- Hanna and Barbera -- UPA -- Britain and Canada -- Norman McLaren -- Caroline Leaf -- George Dunning -- Paul Driessen -- Bob Godfrey -- Aardman Animation -- Nick Park -- Eastern Europe -- Jir�i Trnka -- Yuri Norstein -- Jan Svankmajer -- Quay Brothers -- Anime - A Brief Introduction -- Hayao Miyazaki -- Computer Animation -- The Death of Stop-Motion? -- The Simpsons and Beyond -- Animator's Dozen -- Resources.

Animation covers everything from Tex Avery's split-second slapstick and The Simpsons' knowing digs at pop culture, to Hayao Miyasaki's strong-willed heroines and Yuri Norstein's delicately rendered folktales. Often dismissed by the uninitiated as 'kid's stuff', any detailed look at animation reveals a technically complex, sophisticated and endlessly inventive medium. Intended both as a guide and an introduction to this fascinating field, the Pocket Essential Animation examines and celebrates this genre in its many forms. It explores the careers, techniques and key films of many of the major animators. It begins with pioneers such as Winsor McCay, the Fleischer brothers and Walt Disney when the 'House of Mouse' was only a twinkle in his eye. Then brings you right up to date with Nick Park's claymation and the slick CGI comedies of John Lasseter's Pixar studio. In between, it takes in the innovations of Norman McLaren, the sexual obsessions of Bob Godfrey and the agit-prop surrealism of Jan Švankmajer. Kid's stuff, indeed.
