Yes it's finally here, the first English language book about the legendary Studio Ghibli. Read all about the finest animation being created in the world today.
The animations of Japan’s Studio Ghibli are amongst the highest regarded in the movie industry. Their delightful films rank alongside the most popular non-English language films ever made, with each new eagerly anticipated release an almost guaranteed box office smash. And yet this highly profitable studio has remained fiercely independent, producing a stream of highly imaginative and individual animations. The studio’s founders, Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki, long-time animators, have created timeless masterpieces that enthral generations and win over the critics. Although their films are distinctly Japanese their themes are universal: humanity, community and a love for the environment.
The Kamera Book: Studio Ghibli examines all the major works of Studio Ghibli as well as Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata’s early output, exploring the cultural and thematic threads that bind these films together. No other film studio, animation or otherwise, comes close to matching Ghibli when it comes to pure cinematic experience. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll gasp in amazement. Join us on a journey to discover the charming, wonderful, exciting, frightening, fantastical world of Studio Ghibli.
