Škola crtanog filma
Borivoje Dovniković-Borda's School of Animated Film is a classic manual for animation, a fundamental work of Croatian and world cinema, translated into several languages and used as a textbook, for example at the Film Academy in Prague since 1985.
Bordo, a pioneer of the Zagreb School of Animation, shares his decades of experience as an animator, director, and cartoonist, offering a practical guide to creating animated films.
The book is structured to guide the reader through the animation process, from basic principles to complex techniques. It explains key elements: movement, rhythm, character characterization, frame composition, and narrative structure.
Bordo emphasizes the importance of studying real movement to make animation convincing, with tips on drawing, animation stages, and the use of sound effects. He pays special attention to the humor and satire characteristic of the Zagreb School, as well as the minimalist style that is its trademark.
The manual is richly illustrated with Bordo's drawings, which makes it easy to understand the techniques. It is intended for beginners as well as experienced animators, providing insight into the creative process and the secrets of the craft. The School of Animation celebrates the art of animation, reflecting Bordo's dedication and contribution to global animation, making it an indispensable work for fans and professionals.
