Book Description
Just as a landscape without a human element can be stark or impersonal, a character without an adequate setting deprives ones perception of context. Whether in animation, film or video game production, it takes a unique skill set to generate background art that compliments but does not compete with the actors employed or the creative output of character designers. Impeccable Scene Design presents in a cohesive manner the fundamental elements in the development of effective scene design, as well as the necessary tools and skill sets. Ranging from the basics of concept, perspective and composition to the key components that make up a scene: landscapes, environments, cityscapes, atmosphere and still objects - this book is a tremendous resource. Includes invaluable advice on client negotiation, tools and software that makes this title a must for students, teachers and practitioners alike.

Book Description
From renowned artist Gregory Manchess comes a lavishly painted novel about the son of a famed polar explorer searching for his stranded father, and a lost city buried under snow in an alternate future. When it started to snow, it didn’t stop for 1,500 years. The Pole Shift that ancient climatologists talked about finally came, the topography was ripped apart and the weather of the world was changed—forever. Now the Earth is covered in snow, and to unknown depths in some places. In this world, Wes Singleton leaves the academy in search of his father, the famed explorer Galen Singleton, who was searching for a lost city until Galen’s expedition was cut short after being sabotaged. But Wes believes his father is still alive somewhere above the timberline. Fully illustrated with over 120 pieces of full-page artwork throughout, Above the Timberline is a stunning and cinematic combination of art and novel.

Book Description
Who but Russell Hoban could weave a tale of life’s pleasures and pain around a candy pig? And who but Quentin Blake could make the most poignant of stories so lighthearted and delightful? In this episodic picture book by an inimitable author-illustrator duo, a fantastic chain of events is triggered by the unacknowledged fall of a marzipan pig behind the sofa. We meet in quick succession a heartsick mouse, a lonely grandfather clock, an owl in love with a taxi meter, a worker bee, a fading hibiscus flower, a mouse who greets the dawn dancing, and finally a boy who guesses at the true relations between things. Appealing to the unsentimental yet sensitive nature of children, The Marzipan Pig is exquisitely attuned to the bittersweet wonder of life and to the sentience of all beings.
