网友对The Art of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story的评论
Regardless of how you feel about any given Star Wars film, one thing that is just about undeniable is that each and every installment in the Star Wars series has wonderful design work. "Rogue One" is no exception, and "The Art of Rogue One" goes in-depth into the art and design of the characters, locations, and key sequences in the film. I had mixed feelings about the film on the whole, but I was incredibly impressed by the work of the art department and production design team. This book is a must-own if you enjoyed the film or enjoy great artwork.
There is so much artwork here that one could spend hours going through and studying the images in the book. Some of my favorites are detailed below:
- The designs of K2-SO, the film's new droid and likely a fan favorite from the film. The book shows very early concepts of K2, and well as artwork that looks to be near to the final film version of the droid.
- Rough sketches of Jyn, including various alternate costume and gear designs.
- Designs for the new all-black Death Troopers, Director Krennic's elite personal guards.
- Illustrations of Krennic's encounter with Darth Vader in his castle on Mustafar.
- Full two-page spreads of artwork from the Battle of Scarif (both the ground and air campaigns).
In looking through the book, it's interesting to see how the design team takes cues from old Star Wars (necessary given the film's proximity to the original 1977 film) and build on it to create new designs. For example, you'll see the traditional TIE Fighter that you know and love, but you'll also be introduced to the TIE Striker (very similar in overall look and design, but a distinctive new shape).
I really enjoyed spending time going through "The Art of Rogue One", and will likely find myself revisiting it many times in the future. The level of creativity on display in Star Wars is a major reason why it's my favorite film series, and books like this capture everything I love about the art and design of the movies.
So I received in the Mail today my favorite "Christmas Present" - The Art of Rogue One. - This is one of the best and most bad-assery books I have now. The images I so wanted to pause from the movie are in it including Darth Vader's Castle - various Concept Paintings. The book does not waste pages with photos from the movie, just pure image after image after image of conceptual design. Most of "The Art of" books" give a budding artist ideas (good ideas) on what to do to get inspired. The one I read today is that when they were developing the U-Wing, the art director gave the various concept artists a game/competition - draw as many as ideas in 1.5 minutes (GO!) and there are literally hundreds of great starship designs. That's how you do it!
Highly recommend this book - 5 stars out of 5!
Top rating!
I'm an unabashed Star Wars fan, so this purchase was a no-brainer for me. It arrived in the mail one day after the movie was released in theaters/cinemas (delete as applicable based upon which side of the Atlantic you're on) and I waited until I'd seen Rogue One before cracking the book. This is a sumptious book, nicely bound and printed on high-quality paper. Clocking in at 256 pages, it's also good value. You get a lot of bang for your book here: each of the planets visited in the movie are covered (and there are quite a few of them), as are the starships, fighters, shuttles, and other tech. The cast of characters are also featured, and the book takes you from the first concept art through to the final designs. This is a book that Star Wars fans will want to return to after each viewing of the movie, and even the casual reader can appreciate the sheer amount of effort that went into designing and producing the latest Star Wars blockbuster. Highly recommended for Star Wars fans (five stars) and recommended for others (four stars).
Like all good "Art Of" books, this one provides as much behind-the-scenes info as it does concept art. The book itself is impossible to leave on the table. The cover art alone commands a few page flips at the very least. There is plenty of artwork from Industrial Light & Magic concept art veterans including Doug Chiang and Ryan Church that provide a sense of progression to what ultimately made it to the final cut of the film. There are also pieces in the book that provide a hint at what the initial cut of the film must have been like tonally. This is a must-have for any Star Wars, art, or film connoisseur.
