The art of Wallace and Gromit the Curse of the Wererabbit - reviewed (1/1 people found this helpful)
Wow!
This book is a really great guide to how the oscar winnning movie was made.
From early character designs to the drawing of the storyboards, it's all here presented with some beautiful drawings all placed at the right point in the book so that they do go with what is being written.
My favourite parts were, as a mad fan of the film, the boxes with bits you might have missed in the final production.
These were things from the barbers shop being called 'a close shave' (a reference to the duos 3rd outing) to the mysterious fact that Feathers McGraw (the penguin from the Wrong Trousers) appears in the film for a good 7 or 8 seconds, something that no-one sofar outside Aardman has spotted!
All in all, a wonderful guide and a must hae for beginners and advanced animators as well as a must have for any fans of Wallace and Gromit!
The Art of Wallace and Gromit (5/5 people found this helpful)
I think this book is really great. Not only can we understand more fully the ideas and production of this film, but it also aids any animation student in the practical field. It offers tips that would be helpful even to someone just starting out animating in their bedroom. I think the illistrations are beautiful, and marry perfectly with the well concieved captions. The lavish detial in the film we all enjoyed is explained and disected in matching detail- and from this book we can fully understand how they got there, with sketches, models and 3D pre-visualiations This book is a jem - one to keep for ever. A must have for fans and serious students of animation alike!
