"Turn up the volume !" This dynamic sequence where Kaneda attempts to rescue Tetsuo while riding the armed flying platform with Kay is one of my favorites in the film. See more detailed boards like this in my review for the new storyboard book ( vol 1 ) - https://t.co/fQfcx352mh
The Enchanted World is the 1st of 7 comic volumes by the late italian artist Sergio Toppi; just look at that crazy hatching/draughtsmanship ! Explore more in my review - https://t.co/jhApddTt8C #artbook #illustration #comics #blauereview
I just posted more pictures and information on the Taiyo Matsumoto Premium Manga Boxset that was recently released. I'll likely be picking it up so look out for a full review 松本大洋プレミアムコミック文庫BOX - https://t.co/0A3YReONRq #manga #comics #illustration
"Now you're king of the mountain, but it's all garbage !" My review for Vol 2 of the AKIRA Storyboards ( Otomo Complete Works edition ) coming soon. Get a copy here - https://t.co/eP2Gd7lAnP #anime #animation #storyboard #大友克洋 #大友全集 #絵コンテ
Now this is interesting to see - a rough layout piece done by Studio Ghibli for AKIRA; perhaps they were subcontracted to handle some work, although I took a look at the end credits and did not spot their name ( or I missed it completely ) - https://t.co/9PRbxtySul

Otomo's insanely strong cinematic vision is manifestly clear when you look at how tight his storyboard drawings compare to the finished shots in the film. The storyboard books are a veritable treasure trove on how he composed his shots - https://t.co/5gApwv3uW6
One of the most unintentionally funny Amazon reviews I've ever read was one left for the Ghost In The Shell genga/layout book (2014), where the reviewer commented that it was a "half-a**ed coloring book, most of the drawings are incomplete" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 - https://t.co/4rXLLv7bUm
Heads up - a 650 pages whopper of an art book will be released on Dec 2nd collecting layouts+genga from Katsuhiro Otomo's AKIRA, as part of Complete Works. This new book will be like a jumbo edition of the Akira Animation Archives (2002 - image below) - https://t.co/qqLsxpNF0n
One of the many reasons why Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira manga is so visually impactful is because of the cinematic framing & composition. Otomo is as much a film director/cinematographer as he is a manga artist - https://t.co/tIhqt3L6gY
Not entirely convinced the storyboards that Otomo drew for Akira are detailed enough, I mean look at this shoddy work... 🤣😂 Just teasing of course ! My review for the storyboard book ( Vol 1 ) is almost done. You can also just grab a copy here - https://t.co/JZIKUt83AV
My treasured ( and very yellowed out ) Akira storyboard books, first published back in 1988. Every frame is a work of art. Also, Kodansha should really consider a reprint of these as they would still sell like hotcakes アキラ絵コンテ集 - https://t.co/ipIjvRp1zO #anime #animation
ICYMI - A whole book dedicated to the detailed concept art sketches by Mitsuo Iso ( Denno Coil ) for anime films like Ghost In The Shell, Magnetic Rose, Roujin Z, Evangelion, MS Gundam & more. See more in my review - https://t.co/EDV5W53Gmu
Hayao Miyazaki's self caricature as a pig riding in a stylish 3 wheeler (L), based on a photo taken by his late mentor, the veteran animator Yasuo Otsuka in 1993 (R). This illustration appeared in the Feb 94 issue of NAVI magazine.
