I give it five stars because it's clear and to the point, it covers a lot of ground, because the author's years of experience in the business shows.People think that being creative is about inspiration, some magical wand beaming an endless stream of imagination to your brain. Maybe it is, but the author shows it's mostly hard work. She is clear in telling that professional writing and storytelling should be a careful, considered process and it's best to follow the footsteps of experienced professionals.Having worked with Flash animation for a long time, as an employee and a freelancer, I have to agree it's a tough job. You have to work along with a team, accept criticism lightly and then deliver some amazing jaw dropping stuff!The book is not about developing ideas for scripts or coming up with some formula for characters, plots etc. It is about the day-by-day practice: how to format your script, deadlines, teamwork, resources etc etc.She shows what professionals - bosses and co-workers- expect from a writer, what are the standards and common practices in each of the three areas. That's a lot of information! And priceless.I love it because it helped me build up a method for work that is more productive and to the point and to bring more focus to the decision making involved in the creative work, specially animation and comics. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Stepping Stone For Any Animation Writer! *by V***J on March 1, 2012* Of all of the websites, and others forms of information i've researched on being a script writer for animation and video games this is by far the most awesome. Christy Marx has literally broken down the process piece by piece, and gives an in dept look at how writing works for the three subjects she covers in this book. Thus far i've only begun reading the animation part of the book due to me only receiving it about 2 or 3 days ago, but it's absolutely fantastic! She gives you advice on the business, and what to prepare for before she gets into the formatting of the script, which i thought was a nice little touch, then she explains some modern terminology for a script, and the differences between some terms that seem to have the same meaning, while also giving examples of what the sluglines would look like. Again i've just started reading a few pages, but i'm really pleased with this. After coming to the realization that i wanted to be a writer, i searched all over the net for information on the formatting, and what to & what not to expect. I began searching Amazon for books on writing for animation & video games, and lo and behold i came across this book which covers the script formatting for both! I highly recommend it for someone looking to get into the writing world. I don't know if this book is currently being used for college classes on writing (it's not being used in my current community college), but it should be just for the sake of being a great guideline for beginners. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent *by G***O on October 28, 2009* I'm starting in animation and I found this book very helpful, full with recomendations and interesting information. ## Frequently Bought Together - Writing for Animation, Comics, and Games - Crafting Short Screenplays That Connect --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/88428249-writing-for-animation-comics-and-games](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/88428249-writing-for-animation-comics-and-games) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
