Nowadays, much of the " grunt-work " of producing an animated film is alleviated by the use of computers and complex animation programs; however, at one time, all of this work had to be done by hand, by teams of artists and animators under the direction of a studio head. This book takes as its example, the Walt Disney film " Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs " , guiding the reader step-by-step through the entire process, from background and character design, through special effects and final compositing and editing. With the gorgeous imagery of this film classic as a backdrop, the reader gains a minute understanding of the work that was once involved in bringing an animated screen classic to life.
