12 Principles of Animation Flipbook Set - Flipboku

Introduced by the Disney animators Ollie Johnston and Frank Thomas in 1981, the 12 Principles of Animation are the fundamental key to mastering the illusion of motion and physics in animation. 

This double flipbook edition is a handy but powerful tool for fans, beginners, students, teachers and professionals of the animation world, to learn and master the illusion of motion and physics in animation. 

In two 6x1 volumes, the collection illustrates the 12 Principles of Animation, animated by legendary animator Raúl García. The edition also includes two foldable paper cubes to make yourself, enhancing the experience with 12 Augmented Reality videos, watchable through your tablet or smartphone.

Each book incorporates a “magic trick” which lets you switch between 6 different sequences, according to the position of your thumb. Each side of the flip book contains 3 different sequences. Thanks to Flipboku's exclusive paper cutting technique, you can switch between them by placing your thumb at the upper, middle and lower edge on both sides of the flip book.

Besides, it’s a colouring flip book as well!

The 12 principles are based on Disney animators Ollie Johnston and Frank Thomas's 1981 book The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation, in which they explore the work of Disney animators from the 1930's onwards, in their quest to produce more realistic animations, in which cartoon characters adhere to the laws of physics but with more abstract characteristics such as emotional timing and character appeal.

Animated by Raúl  García, this double collection provides a handy tool for beginners, students or professionals who need a quick reference guide with animated examples.

Raúl García is a renowned Spanish animator, who has worked on countless animated feature films, including Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, Who Framed Roger Rabbit among many others.
