20 golden years of the Disney master classes
For the first time ever, the complete series of lectures by legendary animator Walt Stanchfield have been compiled and published in a two-volume set. For over twenty years, Stanchfield breathed life into the new golden age of animation with these teachings at the Walt Disney Animation Studios and influenced such talented artists as Tim Burton, Brad Bird, Glen Keane, and John Lasseter. Don Hahn, who edited and compiled the series, and Charles Solomon, animation critic and historian, join Larry Mantle to talk the collected teachings of animator Walt Stanchfield.
