THEN GET THIS BOOK:
http://www.amazon.com/Animators-Sur.....076&sr=8-1
It is The Animator's Survival Kit (Expanded Edition) by Richard Williams (director of the awesome movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit?)
I just bought it last week and am finally getting the chance to read it. Holy cow!! It is very detailed and does a FANTASTIC job of explaining how things are or could be done.
I bought my copy at Borders for only $30, which includes a DVD in the back of the book. I haven't checked out the DVD yet, so I don't know what's on it, but it can't be bad if the book is this good!
Seriously though folks, it's a great resource. I am definitely happy with my purchase. I started reading and before I knew it I was 150 pages in, already with a new, far more comprehensive understanding of how to go about animating. I took a course on animation a few years ago (while I was still in high school) at an art school, and this book blows that course out of the water. This costs far less money and gave me a much greater understanding in much less time.
