Animation AKIRA Layouts & Key Frames 1 OTOMO THE COMPLETE WORKS 23

Product Description

The film version of "AKIRA" was released in theaters in 1988 and revolutionized the world of animation beyond the realm of manga. This book is the first of a three-volume compilation of the extensive layouts, original drawings, and revisions used in the production of the anime version, all drawn by the original author and director Katsuhiro Otomo himself. A layout serves as a blueprint for creating an animated film, containing the necessary information for each scene that makes up the full-length animation.

In addition to the original drawings and layouts of "Part A and the beginning of Part B" of the four parts (A, B, C, and D) that make up the entire film, this volume also includes valuable reproduction celluloid drawings of many famous scenes created based on these drawings. One of the reasons why this work has rewritten the history of animation films and continues to fascinate the world to this day is the "amazing motion" of the film. The book is a collection of storyboards that details the production process of these cutting-edge expressions.

The film version of "AKIRA" was created through a meticulous process in which the "layout," depicting the backgrounds and character movements for each cut based on the art settings, was directed and revised by the animation director, art director, and even director Otomo himself. The sheer quality of this uncompromising screen production can be experienced by simply flipping through the pages, one by one, and from the scenes that move in succession. Almost the entire book is printed in color and contains numerous reproductions of celluloid pictures, making it a book of unprecedented construction.
