Description
The definitive examination of the art and animation of Studio Ghibli’s masterpiece of fantasy and flight, Castle within the Sky!
The contemporary within the perennially popular line of Studio Ghibli art books, which contains interviews, concept sketches, and finished animation cels from classics such as Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro.
Hayao Miyazaki’s Castle within the Sky was once the primary feature film produced by the legendary Studio Ghibli. Sheeta, a girl who has the facility to defy gravity, is at the run from pirates when she meets the young inventor Pazu. In combination they explore the secrets of Laputa, a flying city constructed by a long-lost race of other people. All of Miyazaki’s major themes—the facility of flight, the bravery of younger women, and a world wrecked by change—are captured with beautiful animation and joyous storytelling.
