Elysium

Parade's Best Books about Movies and TV 2013 "With some of the year's most interesting design, Elysium was ripe for a great "Art of..." book and Mark Salisbury delivered." Starburst Magazine 03/09/2013 "Crammed full of stunning production stills, art designs from the celebrated Weta Workshop and closer looks at props you may have missed, this book serves as the ideal complement to Blomkamp's latest sci-fi thriller." Books Monthly 01/09/2013 "This beautiful book examines the extraordinary and mind-boggling work that goes into producing such a film, the prosthetics, the model-making, the CGI, the concept art... This is a monumentally good keepsake, another huge winner from front-runner Titan Books, now recognised as one of the strongest publishers in the field of movie books. Amazing." Hollywood Chicago 08/12/2013 ""Elysium: The Art of the Film" is superior to most companion books partially by the wealth of information in it but also because of the quality of that information. It doesn't merely serve to accompany your favorite sci-fi flick of the Summer, it tries to enhance it. More "Art of the Film" books should do the same." Adventures in Poor Taste 08/11/2013 "The Stanley Kubrick Archives come to mind when reading this book, partly because there's so much detail that wasn't on screen, but also because the notes, contribution from actors and design folks are so complete it's like you're on set. 9.5/10" Geek Smash 08/10/2013 "A beautiful book from cover to cover." Culture Mass 08/06/2013 "AMAZING: Gorgeous!" City of Films 08/29/2013 "It's a beautifully well-crafted book that will help you imagine a world in 2154.

Movies.com 08/06/2013 "As with all of Titan Books' film-related releases, it's a fascinating journey behind the creative curtain."
