The Art of Star Wars: The Last Jedi
Description
Phil Szostak, the author of The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, takes
fans behind the scenes of the blockbuster sequel with this incredible visual
archive of the creative process. Foreword by Rian Johnson Written and directed
by Rian Johnson and production designed by Rick Heinrichs, Star Wars: The Last
Jedi, like every chapter before it, owes its visual language and fully
imagined cinematic landscape to an incomparable art department: the Lucasfilm
“visualists.” The Art of Star Wars: The Last Jedi explores their vision and
illuminates their creative process in stunning detail. Featuring concept art,
costume sketches, and storyboards, this book takes fans on a deep dive into
the development of the fantastic worlds, characters, and creatures—both old
and new—of The Last Jedi. Exclusive interviews with the filmmakers and with
the Lucasfilm visualists provide a running commentary on this unforgettable
art and reveal the inspirations behind moviemaking magic at its finest. “The
Art of Star Wars: The Last Jedi is much more than a bunch of pretty pictures.
Buried in Phil Szostak’s 256-page book are some fascinating insights into the
production of the film. . . . We highly recommend you flip through yourself.”
—Gizmodo “While they’re rarely celebrated, conceptual artists play an integral
role in creating the look of a film . . . The Art of Star Wars: The Last Jedi
gives these talented men and women their proper due by showcasing their
valuable contributions.” —Unbound Worlds Read more
