Preston Blair, cartoon director, is one of the fine artists of hand-drawn animation. With the Disney Studio, he animated in "Pinocchio," "Bambi," and "Fantasia"; in which he designed the hippos. Later for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer he designed and animated "Red Hot Riding Hood" and directed cartoon shorts. A companion to his "Animation," this easy to understand how-to guide is illustrated with dozens of examples.
