About this deal

Some pages are instructions for make-up artists, others are just Del Toro working out what looks cool and scary. I did have the chance to work with Tim Burton on Sleepy Hollow, for Paramount Studios — and during that time, the beginning and pre-production of that effort, I sorted through imagery from his projection of the visualization of the film — including, like Guillermo’s renderings of his imaginative creatures and productions — show the conceptions of set design and character. Dries Van Noten, for example, collects photographs, embellishments and fabric swatches, while Chanel’s resident genius Karl Lagerfeld rarely touches any material, filling pages upon pages with deft, effervescent watercolor sketches. However the edition that arrived was not the same as pictured therefore unsuitable for our collection.

Packed with indecipherable notes, intriguing doodles and an overall hypnotizing look to the page, in general.

The goal of /r/Movies is to provide an inclusive place for discussions and news about films with major releases. Resembling the fabled journals in which acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro records his innermost thoughts and unleashes his vivid imagination, this sketchbook will feature an inspirational message from del Toro along with selected examples of his incredible art. The Guardian Sket notes that there’s some­thing of da Vinci’s note­books in del Toro’s records: the small, neat script, mixed in with the won­der­ful­ly detailed sketch­es, com­bine to give the impres­sion of del Toro doing his best to record the tor­rent of his imag­i­na­tion before the thoughts dis­ap­pear.Use of this site constitutes acceptance of our User Agreement and Privacy Policy and Cookie Statement and Your California Privacy Rights. But in a manner, the idea of the journal is less about the actual professional work, and more about the personal work. It is the essential source of information and ideas that make sense of a world in constant transformation. Reporting on the current political climate is a responsibility we do not take lightly — and we need your help.

Some new sketches depicting "Pacific Rim" (sans the seizure-inducing special effects) have made their way to the internet, once again proving that del Toro is a visual artist to be reckoned with.A friend of mine commented that he hated the idea of a project agenda, since it implied something that related to another concept of something secret and underhanded, the “hidden agenda. For those inter­est­ed in view­ing more of del Toro’s won­der­ful­ly bizarre sketch­es, a some­what larg­er gallery is avail­able here. actus “a doing” and actum “a thing done,” both from agere “to do, set in motion, drive, urge, chase, stir up,” from Proto Indo European root *ag- “to drive, draw out or forth, move” (cf. Davies’ — has compiled Fashion Designers’ Sketchbooks, a 208-page tome that collects the wonderfully revealing scrawls and illustrations of 50 top-flight fashion designers.

For one thing, the book gives us a guided tour of his home, a prop-filled fanboy funhouse that looks like something out of one of his moviesBut the meat of the book is culled from the notebooks Del Toro has been creating since his movie career began. Working with designers and other creatives, the idea of a journal book is commonplace — but to my observations, they tend to be more about the reflections and notations on a project, rather than the bigger circulations about the nature of the doing of the work.The material on this site may not be reproduced, distributed, transmitted, cached or otherwise used, except with the prior written permission of Condé Nast. The concept of the journal as a working place — a point of gathering — a gazement, is something that is disappearing — with literary strategists like Neil Gaiman, their journals are blogs.

I’m sure that you’ve got ideas about your concepts of journals as a creative place, that goes well beyond notetaking and project documentation — a place where you explore the deeper side of the agenda — the work of design. The fourth is a page from his work on Hell­boy, and the fifth is art for his most recent film, Pacif­ic Rim. In the past, I’ve drawn journals that are gathering places for ideas, as well as project plans and notations. The pages look a little like Leonardo da Vinci’s: fevered compositions of precise illustration and barely decipherable text, which testify both to Del Toro’s considerable drawing skills and his singular imagination. Similar in design to del Toro's leather-bound volumes, this sketchbook features an inspirational message from the director along with selected examples of his incredible art.As he explains in the video above, the 256-page hard­cov­er is a selec­tion from his note­books, where the direc­tor devel­oped many of the mon­strosi­ties we’ve seen on screen.
