Welcome to Stayf Draws. I love animation and love to read about animation.Especially 2D animation.I think those movies are more versatile in style. From a young age I was very interested in Disney animation and how they were made. You only had a few books that showed little bits of how the animation was made. But nowadays there are a plethora of books about Disney animation. The Disney Studios has the biggest archives of all animation studios so they have a lot of cool stuff to show. Disney Editions decided to publish a series of books called the Archive Series. In this video I going to show you the book Layout & Background. It is the fourth book in the series.
In the book you see a lot of samples of the layouts and the final backgrounds ranging from artwork for Oswald the Lucky Rabbit in 1928 to The Goofy Succes Story from 2011.

This, along with the 3 other books in the series, are amongst my favourites on my shelf. So beautifully put together and the reproductions are amazing.

[@alannovelle.7021]

What an inspiration, thank you so much. Each page a gem. Would love more reviews.

[@jomo7388]

I have been looking at these for a while and i think you have sold me

[@WordsofaReader]

New to your channel but I’m loving these book reviews. Thank you for the time you take to share these gems.

[@StayfDraws]

You are welcome!

[@davidheard709]

The studies of practicing three-dimension is an on going process…..It’s just the form that makes the drawing very surreal. In such work with water colors, the illustrations have a remarkable touch of depth.

[@Escelce]

Great review. Thank you. Buying now.

[@TMinus01]

Great review of this book. Realy enjoyed it! Tnx Stayf for sharing this. Now I have to buy this book. ;-)

[@TuyenNguyen-ye1gq]

Thank you for your review. As a student in Animation major, I realize that your channel is very useful for me. It helps me decide which book I need for my education.

[@StayfDraws]

You are welcome. That is a great study you are doing! I have made other reviews about animation books. Check it in in this Playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLN-kPOo3iKJMKFtTWHdFekX9Zb7pZq2Wf

[@StayfDraws]

Great to hear that you enjoyed it!

[@tgreen12345]

Thanks for this review Stayf - I just ordered this book after watching your review. Like you I do feel a bit intimidated about how amazing this work is - however it mainly helps me to be totally inspired and hungry to learn more about illustrating. I love your book reviews.👍

[@StayfDraws]

Thanks Teresa, You will love this book! It has a lot great artwork and is very well printed.

[@vincentenland]

[@StayfDraws]

[@byMarceloENG]

Fantastic book... I love this video! Thanks for sharing!

[@VivianaVillanuevaPicolini]

I was in doub if buy this book or not but after this review I'm asking for a copy. Thanks so much for sharing this, appreciated.

[@FranciscoDiazYules]

Very interesting book. Thank you for your review. I love your channel.

[@StayfDraws]

Thanks Francisco!

[@nina1528]

Very interesting.

[@1960frj]

McLaren Stewart did the layout from Sleeping Beauty that’s on the front cover.

[@gimlet41]

Thank you so much for sharing this book! The colors were so beautiful! Can't wait to get this book. I noticed you have a book called Nine Old Men. Will you review that book? I'd love to see a review of that one. ✌:)

[@StayfDraws]

I will review that book as well, with another book about the Nine Old Men written by Disney Animator Andreas Deja.

[@1960frj]

So here’s something I pretty much wanna know, I know the process of doing the layouts for the scene, the scenery is in the storyboard and the layout artist has to fancy that up before its taken to the background artist.....................But, how do the layout and background artists style play out, how can they be recognizable? It’s obvious that the layout artist is the one doing the real work. That one we saw of the woodcutter’s cottage from Sleeping Beauty, it is Eyvind Earle’s style, (look at the tree trunk), but you kinda wonder who did the layout for that?

[@illustoja]

Cool video! Can you please also do 'Story'?

[@StayfDraws]

I will also do a review about Story.

[@illustoja]

Great! Can't wait! :)

[@AppleWatchCenter]

Ik heb die over animatie, maar ik wist hier helemaal niets van 😱

[@vivioctalia]

i cant get this book, but i really need to read the "SETTING THE STAGE" section. would you mind showing it?

[@vivioctalia]

I need it for my undergraduate thesis. I'll be so thankful!

[@maudale]

Eyvind Earle is amazing! Shame his books are so expensive Thank you for sharing

[@StayfDraws]

You are welcome Maudale! They are very expensive indeed. This Wednesday I will post a special video about the Art of Eyvind Earle. I will also make a video about painting in the style of Eyvind Earle soon.

[@maudale]

@@StayfDraws I just got it off of ebay, however I very much wanted "Awakening beauty: the art of eyvind earle", however it's over £300, and I havent been able to find any second hand copies yet. I'm looking forward to your new video :)

[@StayfDraws]

The book was available for $50, but now it is sold out. I checked it and it is now very expensive. That is too bad. I think the books that are published through The Walt Disney Family Museum are made in a lower print run than other Disney art books.

[@maudale]

@@StayfDraws What a shame. There are a few youtube videos that showcase 100s of Eyvind's work, however his work on sleeping beauty is what I prefer. I wonder whether the paint that he used was gouache or casein.

[@StayfDraws]

All of the art he did for Sleeping Beauty was done in Gouache.

[@Elektrifekt]

Does anyone know what the “Story” book is in the background? The one with mickey holding a pencil?

[@StayfDraws]

That is the book Story, it is out of print, but you still can buy it on Amazon second hand. It is quiet expensive now. I will do a review about all of the books in this series. Here is a direct link to the Story book: www.amazon.com/Walt-Disney-Animation-Studios-Archive/dp/1423107233/ref=pd_sbs_7?pd_rd_w=ljXJV&pf_rd_p=2419a049-62bf-452e-b0d0-ca5b7e35a7b4&pf_rd_r=JHEQQY6DE7Z1V935741R&pd_rd_r=0e56787d-d0b9-423c-8988-3f1992fda31e&pd_rd_wg=pgod2&pd_rd_i=1423107233&psc=1
