About this product
Product Information
Over the past 15 years, 20th Century Fox and Blue Sky Studios have revolutionized computer animation with some of the most beloved movies of all time, from their initial success with Ice Age in 2002 to hits like Robots, Rio, Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!, Epic, and the four Ice Age sequels. For the first time, this deluxe coffee-table book tells the remarkable tale of Blue Sky's success, from its origins as a live-action visual effects company to its partnership with 20th Century Fox and reinvention as a driving force in the world of computer-generated animation. With exclusive access to Blue Sky's archives and the exceptional artists who have made characters like Ice Age's Scrat and Rio's Blu and Jewel household names, this book takes an in-depth behind-the-scenes look at one of animation's greatest success stories. Featuring never-before-seen concept art, early sketches, stunning stills, and other unique visuals, The Art of Blue Sky Studios delivers the complete illustrated history of this outstanding creative force in computer-generated animation.

...is the most impressive movie-related art book I've ever seen... the full color paintings [are] done mostly to visualize the environments for the films and the characters' place in them, and they're striking. I can't compliment them enough...Best of all, the book doesn't try to cram them all into a smaller format. They're allowed to breathe. Some stretch across two page spreads. You can really see these paintings, and that's what an art book should do." -- Comic Book Resources This book encompasses everything up to and including Rio 2 .

Excellent condition hardly used. Better than described. Packaging was adequate, wrapped in a plastic bag with no bubble wrap. Shipping cost was fair but was delivered a week after the delivery date. Otherwise the Seller was good and priced below other sellers. I would buy from them again. A+

The item was perfectly described. Shipping was great in spite of the USPS sending the package through more cities than a foreign tourist on vacation. But back to the seller. Communications and service were great. And having an unusual item at a great price, we'll I'm a happy camper. I'll be back for more.
