By Ray Harryhausen and Tony Dalton. Foreword by Peter Jackson.
The creator of classics such as One Million Years BC, Jason and the Argonauts and Clash of Titans presents artwork from his own personal archives. These include preliminary sketches, elaborate drawings of key scenes and storyboards, all produced for animating the prehistoric creatures, aliens and mythical monsters that stole the scenes from the human actors. There are also tiny, elaborately articulated models which Harryhausen created to play these roles, and the bronzes he cast to preserve their forms. This stunning array of images is a tribute to the scope of Harryhausen's imagination and his artistic skill. No student of special effects or cinema history will want to be without this. Bookplate signed by Harryhausen while supply lasts.
