The Second Annual Animation Book festival is a gathering of authors and artists from the animation industry and which is being co-sponsored by MyToons.com and Animation Magazine
The Second Annual Animation Book Look, a unique author/artist signature book signing event, will be held on Saturday, May 17, 2008 in Sherman Oaks, CA. Co-hosted by Van Eaton Galleries and The Creative Talent Network, Animation Book Look is a gathering of authors and artists from the animation industry. MyToons.com and Animation Magazine are co-sponsoring the event.
Animation Book Look provides an opportunity for professionals from the publishing and animation industries to promote themselves and their art to fans, collectors, and art aficionados. This festival of book signings and artist sightings is the only event of its kind in the country, featuring appearances by well-known visual and literary artists, as well as, “undiscovered” animation authors.
“We are really excited about co-sponsoring this year’s Animation Book Look event,” said Paul Ford, co-founder and president of MyToons. “The Book Look is one of those rare opportunities for animation fans and enthusiasts to get up close and personal with some of the world’s most gifted animation pros. If you are into animation, this event is not to be missed.”
This years’ event will bring more than 54 artists/authors to the signing table with over 75 books showcased, ranging from children’s books, artist’s sketchbooks, and illustration, to fine-art, “how to’s” and “history of’s” all under one tent.
