Customer Reviews

Danger, Will Robinson!

I was impressed by the motion picture remake of the old "Lost in Space" TV series: the sets, costumes, effects, and other elements were obviously conceived and designed with great care and professionalism. "The Making of Lost in Space," by Pat Cadigan, is a documentary look at the making of the motion picture.Cadigan discusses the process of transforming the elements of the familiar 60s TV series into a film. The book contains many fascinating concept drawings of the visual elements that eventually were used. Many "behind-the-scenes" artists and technicians get some well-deserved recognition.I don't know what the future holds for this sci-fi franchise. But this book is a treat for "Lost in Space" fans anyway.

An incredible 750 FX shots movie

If you're looking for a wireframe images and transforming them into a real Special Effects,a hundreds of shots from the movie set,tons of images from the movie and the movie set,detailed making of almost every Special Effect used in the movie then this is what you've been looking for. You won't regret it!
