Another quality Art of book from the folks at Disney/Pixar, strikes a good balance between quality concept art and production insights, perfect for adults and younger readers.
El libro es maravilloso, los bocetos son fantásticos, te das cuenta de cuantísimo trabajo hacen las personas que crean las películas animadas, es una gozada ver sus trabajos, y en este libro en especial los trabajos a carboncillo de Simón Varela, para mi parecer son los mejores bocetos de todo el libro.Lo único que me quejo un poco, por poner una pega, es que me faltan curiosidades y fotografías de las esculturas de los personajes que hicieron, que por ejemplo en El arte de Coco si las ponen, pe...
حتى بالرغم من كوني قد نسيت نصف الفيلم وأحداثه لكن أجواء البيئة البحرية لا زالت عالقة في ذهني ولا زلت أحب رؤيتها كثيرا.ولأنني أحب هذه البيئة برغم أخطارها وأحب رؤية ما أبدع الله من عجائب قررت ان اشتري الكتاب لأعاود النظر كلما اشتقت لبيئة بحرية تبث الأمل بألوانها الجميلة الرائعة.رسوم الفيلم لا يُعلى عليها، تعاون بيكسار وديزني مثمر دائما ^_^استمتعت بقراءة ذكريات طاقم الفيلم والمعلومات التي وفروها لنا عبر هذا الكتاب الجميل.أعتقد أن من أحب فيلم البحث عن نيمو سيُحب كتابه.To make it very short, it's ver...
I liked that they used only the development and exploration designs in pastel and charcoal. I genuinely expected to see more of the character designs and color scripts, hence I'm disappointed for not seeing much of those.
It's always incredible to see the roots of some of your favorite things. This book shows the hard work put into the making of this film and adds a richness to the viewing experience. I almost cried three times while reading this and hearing the backstory of one of the most beautiful films of all time.
An extraordinary collection of concept art and designs from the making of Pixar's Finding Nemo. (My favorite was the charcoal work of Simon Varela - he's some sort of charcoal-wielding ninja.)There are no movie stills, which I appreciate very much, being that a "making of" book, imho, doesn't need them. I know what the finished product looks like, and I want behind the scenes.Another plus was that there was no time wasted with other movies or Pixar history. Lots of other books take up several pa...
(More pictures at parkablogs.com)This cover is the most beautiful one of all the Pixar artbooks I've owned. That pastel drawing was done by Ralph Eggleston, production designer.This book will only enhance that feel-good feeling you have after you watch the movie, probably several times if you have kids.There are a lot of pastel storyboards drawn for lighting studies. They are incredibly beautiful and you can almost feel the texture to them. The colour theory used for the movie is explained t
This may be the best book I've ever read, finishing it I really feel like I could cry. This movie has such a special place in my heart and by reading this book I got to see how the story and characters became who they are. I honestly don't think this book could have been better, I highly recommend. On a little side note I just wanted to say that I've heard The Art Of Tangled is the best in the "genre" but for me this one definitely passed it up. The Art Of Finding Nemo is a must read for any Pix...
A spectacularly beautiful book. It also goes to show why Pixar is the successful company that it is. Surrounding yourself by information and artwork, even going to the extremes to see a great white shark in person to observe how the teeth and jaw work. Such a great deal of work with the stunning outcome of one of my favourite Pixar films of all time. Just as was the aim - like nothing I have ever seen before.
I really liked this one for the fact that it actually consisted of drawn (digital or otherwise) art pieces, and not movie stills. The most noteworthy pieces were undoubtedly Simon Varela's charcoal drawings. They are masterpieces, with the full page lay-outs that they deserved, and if a family member came across me staring intently at a page in here, you could bet that it was one of Varela's that held my attention.Overall, one of the better Art Of books. "But's that the theme of the movie. It

This is outstanding.This book is one of the first of the Pixar "The Art of..." books. Extensive work went into the image selection and the writing of the text, and it shows. Pixar had some major technical problems to overcome in depicting an underwater world. Coral reefs are immensely complex, and there was no way that such complexity could be rendered on screen. How could one simplify that complexity, and yet retain the "image" of complexity for the viewer? Water is deep. When a person is in wa...
Yep it's a book about art but it's pretty wordy and I'm counting it because I'm stressing I won't finish my challenge in time also it's my reading challenge, bog off! ;) For real though this was such an interesting read, I love the behind the scenes of how they designed the characters and locations it's beautiful and my dream career.
If you are a fan of finding Nemo this is a must read. Also just read if u are a art fan
This is one of the few art books that manages to give a great balance of both information and art content. I never felt like there was too little or too much of either here, and there really are some stunning pieces in this. Simon Varela's charcoal pieces in particular are worth the price alone as absolute masterpieces. Much of the environmental art is perfect for any artist interested in sea plant life.
Y otro arte de Disney/Pixar que termino.Visualmente este libro es una maravilla, todos los bocetos y demás están tan bien hechos que dan ganas de ponerse a dibujar o a copiarlos para enmarcarlos en la pared de tu casa.Que pasada!La película no es de mis favoritas pero ver el océano en carboncillo, en lápiz o en pastel es lo mejor que veo en un libro desde no sé ni cuando.Me encanta este libro!!
I really enjoyed this one, mostly due to the fact that it has a lot of concept drawings using traditional techniques. Like charcoal, pastel, acrylic... and that makes it pop up from the other Pixar art books, above all the background concepts are masterpieces.I also really liked that it has a lot of information about how the movie was created and little curiosities about it.
Aunque también trata con algo de detalle los numerosos retos técnicos y creativos de la gestación de la película de Pixar Buscando a Nemo, en forma de recopilación de comentarios de los creadores, lo más fascinante es la selección de caricaturas, bocetos y sobre todo el impresionante arte preliminar en formatos como carboncillo o pastel. Como recopilatorio de ilustraciones, y como tributo a la película, es una preciosidad...
Review Taken From The Pewter WolfIt's exactly what the title states. With a foreword from John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton (the main two of Pixar), this shows the art work the people involved in making this movie from the beginning to the later stages. And I drooled over each and every picture, which ranged from quick and cartoony to very serious and very in depth.And I loved it! Loved to discover how one of my fave movies was created. And I discovered several pictures that I DESPERATELY want to...
This has to be one of my favorite animated movies of all time. Not only is it beautiful in its story and message, but also very much so artistically. And this is why Pixar never ceases to amaze me with their movies. They take the time to tell the story, from the main plotline to the tiniest detail of a computer-generated sea anemone. Each of their characters, no matter how minor their role, has a fully-developed personality, physically and emotionally. Through the various characters, settings, a...
