    Every animator should have this book. If you are a 3D character animator and like me, not very confident with drawing, then you will really benefit from the simplified techniques taught in this book. Planning out a shot is essential, this book will really help you get past worrying about the drawings and instead let you more confidently plan and capture what you need to have a clear plan of your shot. I am really glad to see that they used iBooks Author to capture the look and feel of the physical book and have added new content and motion examples to bring the concepts to life even more.
