The Art of Movie Storyboards: Visualising the Action of the World’s Greatest Films, by Fionnuala Halligan, is a collection of storyboard excerpts from around forty films. Published in America as Movie Storyboards: The Art of Visualizing Screenplays, the book showcases the work of pre-visualisation artists in the film-production process.
Some of the greatest production designers (such as Saul Bass and William Cameron Menzies) are included, and plenty of classic films (including Psycho, Gone with the Wind, The Big Sleep, and Apocalypse Now) are represented. Most of the storyboards were not created by the directors themselves, though there are a few notable exceptions, including Martin Scorsese’s drawings for Raging Bull.
