Books with author William T. Richardson

The definitive book on animation, from the Academy Award-winning animator behind Who Framed Roger Rabbit?Animation is one of the hottest areas of filmmaking today--and the master animator who bridges the old generation and the new is Richard Williams. During his fifty years in the business, Williams has been one of the true innovators, winning three Academy Awards and serving as the link between Disney's golden age of animation by hand and the new computer animation exemplified by Toy Story. Perhaps even more important, though, has been his dedication in passing along his knowledge to a new generation of animators so that they in turn could push the medium in new directions. In this book, based on his sold-out master classes in the United States and across Europe, Williams provides the underlying principles of animation that every animator--from beginner to expert, classic animator to computer animation whiz --needs. Urging his readers to "invent but be believable," he illustrates his points with hundreds of drawings, distilling the secrets of the masters into a working system in order to create a book that will become the standard work on all forms of animation for professionals, students, and fans.

I think people should know the real Tupac Shakur - not just thug life, but real life.We were behind the wall together. I watched him battle the conflict raging within him, between the revolutionary he was raised to be and the gangster the streets wanted him to be, between the push of his talent and the pull of his environment.That internal struggle is symbolic of an entire community. And that’s why I wrote this book.Now more than ever, our young men and women are caught in a struggle: a struggle against the mismessaging of social media, the disturbing trend of overt sexuality, the lure of violence, the glorification of gang life, the push to conform to something and someone they were never intended to.Behind the Walls with Tupac Shakur, ironically, is more relevant now than ever before. It’s an intimate look through the eyes of my friend, the legend, with a powerful message for the future of Black America.

In my life going to church in a small town to my present location, I have seen how some churches do not have a youth ministry. While other churches are trying to put a youth ministry together and other churches try to but fail the proper structure with doing the best they know how. The main purpose is to teach the youth the WORD of GOD on their level.Teaching the youth is a challenge and fun at the same time from my experience over the years. If you are in this calling to be a youth minister or whatever the church you attend call this position. You will find this to be such a priceless reward in anything you will ever do in your life. I never knew this ministry would birth a book from all my experiences as a youth minister. If you been called or assigned by your Pastor to head the youth ministry at church. This book from the guidance of the Holy Spirit will help start or improve the youth ministry. I have learned from trial & era what will help ease the shock of walking in the first day of youth service. First, remember Matthew 6:33---“Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you”. The Holy Spirit is here to help us in every way in our ministry in this Christian wall. Remember our purpose is leading them to Our Lord & Savior Jesus the Christ. If, I can help you please contact me from the information on the last page. May this book be a blessing to you and your ministry.

Jubilant at the outbreak of the Civil War and destitute in its aftermath, Lexington, Virginia, ultimately rose from the ashes to rebuild in the shadow of the conflict's legacy. It is the final resting place of two famous Confederate generals, Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, and the home of two of the South's most important war-era colleges, Washington College and the Virginia Military Institute. Author Richard G. Williams presents the trials and triumphs of Lexington during the war, including harrowing narratives of Union general Hunter's raid through the town, Lee's struggle between Union and state allegiances and Jackson's rise from professor to feared battlefield tactician.
