How We Crafted (#1) Reviews


  • Contessa

    The volume is a unicum! I loved flipping through the pages, enjoying the beautiful artwork, and learning more about the behind the scenes of big animation films such as Song of the Sea.

    It is a great way to get an insight in the creative world of animation and to get drawn to less known works of art.

    I hope a new volume comes out SOON!
