About the Book:
The huge ape of Mighty Joe Young. The fighting skeletons of Jason and the Argonauts. And, of course, the angry T. Rex of Island of the Gwangi. All these creations, and many more seared into our collective consciousness, are the work of Ray Harryhausen. The father of special effects, Ray Harryhausen is revered among film historians, animators, special-effects designers, and everyone who's ever seen his inspired stop-motion creations.
The Art of Ray Harryhausen is packed with never-before-seen images from the artist's personal archive, including sketches, drawings of key scenes, storyboards, and models that were used in films. Concise essays and lavish illustrations look at each of Harryhausen's many specialties, including aliens, prehistoric, creatures, mythological monsters, and much more. This deluxe paperback edition allows fans of Harryhausen to see the progression of his work over time, in a visual celebration of his art and artistry.
