Well, the title of this book is quite misleading. It's certainly not a proper book for learning the basics of animation. This book is a guide which shows the stop-motion movies worth watching and contains some interesting information about the technique, but to learn something I suggest buying some books for advanced animators since they cover the basics as well quite often.

Basics Animation: Stop-motion Animation explores how all the elements of film-making – camera work, design, color, lighting, editing, music and storytelling – come together in this unique art form. The book is packed with tips and suggestions to help you get the most out of your own stop-motion films.

Very informative. It taught me, a person with really bad animation skills(all I ever did was macromedia), a lot of things about stop motion, and what goes on behind the scenes of a stop motion animation, be it claymation or sand animation.

A great introduction to stop-motion animation with really clear sections and beautiful image examples.

[Tom De Ville · Rating 3 out of 5]

A strong introduction to the art of stop-motion animation, packed with beautiful pictures and interesting tips. However, it's not quite detailed enough to act as a how-to guide.
