Coraline: A Visual Companion
Coraline Jones has just moved into a big old Victorian house with her inattentive parents, and like any eleven-year-old with an active imagination, she soon begins exploring her new home. One day, Coraline discovers a tiny door that leads to another house. Waiting for her there are her Other Mother and Other Father, who have big black buttons for eyes. At first this other world is marvelous and magical, but Coraline gradually comes to realize that her new parents want her to become their "little" girl and stay with them "forever."
Written and directed by Henry Selick, the celebrated director of "The Nightmare Before Christmas" and "James and the Giant Peach," the film "Coraline" was created in stop-motion animation, drawing on the latest cutting-edge computer 3-D technology. It also showcases the remarkable vocal talents of Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher, John Hodgman, Ian McShane, Jennifer Saunders, and Dawn French.
Featuring hundreds of rare and exclusive photographs and illustrations, production designs and concept drawings, and interviews with the cast and crew, "Coraline: A Visual Companion" takes readers on an in-depth tour behind the scenes of a movie that is destined to be a fantasy classic.
From the genesis of the original novel through the entire creative process of turning the book into a movie to the many other incarnations of "Coraline" around the world, this visual companion is a lavish guide that will appeal to Gaiman fans, cinema buffs, visual art enthusiasts, and all those who fall in love with the inquisitive young heroine of Henry Selick's extraordinary film.
It's a nice enough visual guide - I borrowed it from the library. But if you're looking for an "art book" don't buy this book - you will be disappointed.If you're looking for concept art, sketches, etc. there are better sources for free on the internet. (http://circusmice.tumblr.com/)I really did love this book though, and will use images I've scanned from it in an essay for school.
Borrowed this from the library. Simply a masterpiece. Coraline will always be my favorite book and movie, and "The Art of Coraline" was the perfect thing for me. It captured the creepiness and beauty from the other mother: ... To the CREEPY version of the other mother:...To the star of the movie, Coraline:...To Wybie...And please, lets not forget to the CAT:But whatever you do, do not open the mysterious door that is hiding behind your wallpaper. You never know...
