5.0 out of 5 stars
Simply stunning collection of collages,
By
This review is from: Alchemy Of Mirroemask (Hardcover)
This book contains a stunning collection of collages by Dave Mckean. Every piece of collage is showcase of creativity and fantasy. The pages are visually saturated from the cover to the last page, a feast for the eyes.
The premise of the book is on the production of the movie Mirrormask. It talks about the production of the movie exclusively. Very little is mentioned about the story, which is not a problem if you have watched the movie. The thing with collages is, they are typically filled with great textures. This book is no different. It is through the textures of these collages that give this book so much depth. I felt there could have been more write up on the making of the movie. But this book is essentially 5 stars for the art displayed. There are more pictures on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.

get inside mirrormask,
By Joseph Bakhmoutski "joe" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Alchemy Of Mirroemask (Hardcover)
if you liked the movie, then you'll surely be interested in this book which details pre-production, shooting etc. i must admit that even though i really like mckean's and gaiman's work, i didn't think the film was a masterpiece - but the book also gives a better understanding of what i think could've been but didn't happen because of budget constraints.

Mirror Mask,
By Melissa Camilini "Anti-Melissa" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Alchemy Of Mirroemask (Hardcover)
This book turned out to be fantastic. To be honest I was looking for a book that showcased the artwork of MirrorMask and while this book did offer some of the artwork it offered so much more information about the whole movie itself including information on the artwork which was drawn by Ian Miller. It is a wealth of information on a wonderful movie. My daughter (who still sleeps in my bed) calls it our sleepy time movie and we watch it every night. I'm still not tired of it. Love the book.
