The Art of Ray HarryhausenBillboard Books, 2006 - Всего страниц: 230 "In An Animated Life, Ray Harryhausen told the story of his career as the acknowledged grandmaster of special effects in the pre-computer era, the creator of classics such as One Million Years BC, Jason and the Argonauts and Clash of the Titans." "In this companion volume the focus is not on the movies themselves, but on the vast hoard of artwork that Harryhausen has carefully preserved in his London home, much of which is published here for the first time. Reproduced to the highest standards, it includes preliminary sketches, elaborate drawings of key scenes and carefully plotted storyboards, all produced as he sought backing for his next venture and prepared to undertake the laborious task of animating the prehistoric creatures, aliens and mythical monsters which stole scene after scene from the human actors. Also depicted here are the tiny, elaborately articulated models which Harryhausen created to play these roles and the bronzes which he cast to preserve their forms in perpetuity." "This stunning array of images is a tribute to the scope of Harryhausen's imagination and artistic skills, which no one interested in special effects or cinema history can afford to be without."--Jacket. |
