Art of Kubo and the Two Strings by Emily Haynes
From LAIKA, the Academy Award nominated studio behind Coraline, ParaNorman, and The Boxtrolls, comes a new adventure set in a mythical ancient Japan. In Kubo and the Two Strings, scruffy, kind-hearted Kubo cares devotedly for his mother while eking out a humble living in their sleepy shoreside village. But when a spirit from the past appears, Kubo suddenly finds himself entwined in a violent struggle against gods and monsters. This fully illustrated book offers a behind-the-scenes view of the amazingly detailed artwork and unique stop-motion animation style involved in the film's creation.
LAIKA is an animation studio that produces original animated films. Their latest feature, The Boxtrolls, was nominated for a Golden Globe. ParaNorman, released in 2012, was nominated for both an Oscar® and a BAFTA. And their first stop motion movie, Coraline, was released to critical acclaim and won an Oscar® in 2009. Travis Knight is LAIKA’s president and CEO as well as lead animator on LAIKA’s first feature, Coraline; producer and lead animator on both ParaNorman and The Boxtrolls; and producer and director on Kubo and the Two Strings. He lives in Portland, Oregon. Emily Haynes is an editor and author.
