Too bad was only 95 pages!,
This review is from: Horses and Other Animals in Motion: 45 Classic Photographic Sequences (Paperback)
I should have got Animals in Motion that is over 400 pages, though this book was just fine, it was, I presume, the appetizer for his other book which had four times as many illustrations for only a few dollars more. Perhaps I'll sell this one and buy the other one and see for sure. Otherwise, its a great book. It had about 13 pages just horses, then went to a donkey and cats, lions, camels and other stuff I didn't need nor was interested in. I wonder if the other book has MORE horses? There was an introduction of one page, a short summary, and the rest was whole pages filled with movie clip style shots that were about 2" SQUARE each frame, maybe 8 - 12 frames per page, each page one animal in motion. I need to see more, more and more of everything, but that's because I'm drawing horses and wanted to see 30 movement shots of one animal instead of 8. The more I have to choose from the better, so guess I'm gonna use the images here until I need to move up to the next Muybridge book, the 418 page one, Animals in motion which I now realize I should have got in the first place.

This book is great for 3d Animators,
By David Thomas II (Redmond, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Horses and Other Animals in Motion: 45 Classic Photographic Sequences (Paperback)
For those of you who are 3d animators this book is great, it really helps to know how to truly make lifelike those horses or other animals that are more complex then bipeds. I recommend this book to all.davesheri@hotmail.com

Six of one, a half dozen of the other,
By Atticus - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Horses and Other Animals in Motion: 45 Classic Photographic Sequences (Paperback)
The 45 sequences in Horses and Other Animals are included in the larger Animals in Motion by Muybridge. The difference being that in Animals, you get more sequences and usually better reproductions; in Horses and Other Animals you get fewer sequences, but larger images making the detail a little more visible - except in those cases where the reproductions are a little gray and washed out. You choose - more and better or fewer and more gray. You don't really need both books.

This review is from: Horses and Other Animals in Motion: 45 Classic Photographic Sequences (Paperback)
I had heard about these books and I wanted one to look at. It is a good starter book for showing animal movements for animation purposes.
