內容簡介: |
In 1933, Walt Disney was a rising star in the world of
animation, just beginning to become a household name. Ambitious new
ideas emerged from the Disney studio on a regular basis, and the
film world waited eagerly to see what the creative young filmmaker
would do next. The answer surprised them all: a full-length
animated feature film, based on the traditional tale Snow White
and the Seven Dwarfs. The production took three years and the
talents of many of Hollywood’s top artists . . . and, of course,
created one of the best-loved classics of all time. This book,
based on a ground-breaking exhibition of both familiar and
never-before-seen art from the Walt Disney Animation Research
Library, walks the reader scene by scene through the movie,
accompanying the art with behind-the-scenes stories about the
film’s production.
The book features over 200 pieces of art, many reproduced from
original concept sketches, background paintings, and production
cels, as well as alternate character concepts, deleted scenes, and
step-by-step process shots.
