Description: Description【Condition】NewThe 1988 theatrical release of the animated film version of "Akira" went beyond the realm of manga and revolutionized the world of animation.This book is the second volume of a three-volume compilation of the huge amount of layouts, original drawings, and revisions used in the production of the film, all drawn by the original author and director Katsuhiro Otomo himself.A layout is a blueprint of the animation process, in which the necessary information is drawn for each of the scenes that make up the full-length animation.In addition to the original drawings and layouts of "Part B (continuation from the previous volume) and the beginning of Part C" of the four parts A, B, C, and D that make up the entire film, this volume also includes valuable reproductions of celluloid drawings of many famous scenes that were created based on these drawings.Following the two previously published "Storyboard Collection" books, this volume exposes in detail the production process of this still cutting-edge expression.The film version of "AKIRA" was created through a thorough process in which the "layout," which depicts the background and character movements for each cut, was directed and revised by the animation director, art director, and even director Otomo himself.The book is an unprecedented book of its kind that allows the viewer to experience the uncompromising quality of the screen work by simply flipping through the pages and seeing the scenes that move one by one in succession.As in the previous volume, almost the entire book is printed in color and includes numerous reproductions of celluloid images.This volume in particular contains a large number of original corrected drawings within a single cut in succession, allowing the viewer to see the movement of the picture in greater detail, and this structure allows the viewer to further understand the details of the character movements (= acting) that director Otomo was so particular about.The total number of pages is approximately 710, exceeding that of the previous volume.
