Behind the scenes on landmark movies such as King Kong, the Star Wars trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean, X-Men, Predator, the Alien series, Hellboy, and The Chronicles of Narnia are a host of visionary and often obsessive artists, designers, painters, illustrators, sculptors, and animatronic engineers who transform a sketch or a few words from a script into convincing characters with a life and personality of their own.                                                          

Designing Movie Creatures and Characters reveals the inside story of how creatures of the imagination are brought to life onscreen- told by the makers themselves, and illustrated with exclusive, behind-the-scenes shots from hundreds of movies. Learn what inspires and motivates these skilled artists; how Weta Workshop began; how Walt Conti builds swimming robot sharks and whales; how Patrick Tatopoulos creates his stunning designs; how molds, creature suits, eye mechanisms, and masks are constructed- and  how dedicated artists bring characters to life in front of the camera, using suits, makeup, animatronics, puppets, masks, and CGI. Whether you are a designer, animator or an aspiring makeup artist, this book will entertain, challenge, inspire and inform.
