ANIMATION

The tag animation is a popular tag often used by bloggers discussing the work of animators. Many animators are also illustrators of books. A great place to read blog posts about animation is Drawn's animation category. Drawn is a well-known blog about illustrators and animation.

Another regularly updated blog on animation is the TAG blog, featuring the thoughts and observations of the leaders of The Animation Guild (TAG). Cartoon Brew's animation category is another wonderful blog with posts about animation. Many animators blog regularly about animation and their blogs have huge followings. An example is Ice-Cream Monster Cinema, the blog of animator Alina Chau. The animation category of Lines and Colors is another great resource on drawing and animation.
