More New Books for The Animation Library

New Pixar Studio books
We've acquired some new books for the Escape Studios Animation library, where we keep traditional hard copies (ie actual physical books) on the Third Floor at 190 High Holborn, WC1. 

The new books are "Pixar Storytelling" and "Pixar and the Aesthetic Imagination", new titles which will help our 2nd year animators as they start their group film projects. 

The Animation Library is located outside Toontown and Winterfell classrooms.
