You've gotta get this!

This is a great book for anyone interested in 3D animation. There is alot about the history of animation with clay and puppets. Included is info on cameras, lighting, sets, and how to build characters in clay. Learn about movement of characters and see great pictures of Wallace and Gromit being built as well as other short films. Get "Chicken Run Hatching the Movie" book too. You'll love it.
An Excellent Resource

For anyone interested the process of stop-motion animation, whether a fan, or a would-be professional. Lots of great pictures, tips on lighting and cameras. The photos show how well detailed the models are, and the models themselves can provide inspiration to model makers of all kinds.
This is a really good book

This was a great book for people interested in puppet animation. It goes through History, Making models and sets, what camera's are best to use and little hints if you are having lighting problems, keeping puppets standing up e.t.c. If you want to get an animating book this is the one to get.
Essestial for Beginners

This book is just essential for those who have been dabbling in claymation and not quite sure how to take get it right. For example my younger daughter never knew that there were wire frames inside and howled with laughter when she realised. For younger children who have been using clay at primary/junior school and want to use this format to make a short animation film it was perfect. Any more information would have been too much. However I would recommend that an 'advanced' book is projected right away as one does begin to seek new challenges with this format. Still Excellent.
A must for animators and the curious.
