The Art and Soul of Blade Runner 2049 - Revised and Expanded

This is the first of two Blade Runner 2049 art books, the newer one being "Interlinked - The Art" (which I have also recently reviewed). Comparing the two books, this one has much more information about the whole process of making the movie, which was very interesting and gave me a lot of insight that I look forward to considering the next time I watch the film. The art was also beautiful, though including many photographs from production, and being much more focused on detailing the process of making the film. "Interlinked," on the other hand is almost all concept art.Albuquerque Print, Albuquerque Poster, Albuquerque Art Print, Albuquerque Wall Art, New Mexico Print, New Mexico Poster, New Mexico Art When K uncovers Rachael’s bones buried deep in the retired Sapper Morton’s (Dave Bautista) farm, Blade Runner 2049suddenly becomes about more than a simple skinjob case. Multiple factions are interested and would benefit from either revealing the truth about Rachael’s baby or covering it up for good, including Lt. Joshi (Robin Wright) and the LAPD, Replicant manufacturer Niander Wallace (Jared Leto) and his henchwoman Luv (Sylvia Hoeks), and a group of freedom fighters led by the mysterious Freysa (Hiam Abbas). K is somewhere in the middle, at first trying to simply complete his mission (after all, Nexus-9s don’t run or rebel) and destroy all evidence of the Replicant offspring, and then convinced that he’s actually the baby in question.

The one complaint I have is that, compared to "Interlinked", the physical build quality of the book was relatively low. It wasn't extreme, and I still highly recommend the book, but having just enjoyed "Interlinked," with its higher build quality, I wished I could have spent an extra 5 dollars on this volume and gotten a similar binding and cover. We tell you this in the spirit of openness and please rest assured that all our recommendations are vetted and genuine.

The geometric shapes of the architecture and interiors create dramatic shadows cast by the yellow light. There is no natural sunlight in the building so Wallace has created his own (show off!).

Almost too physically large to be easily read, but this wide format is a great way to present the artwork from the movie.

Blade Runner 2049 - Rotten Tomatoes Blade Runner 2049 - Rotten Tomatoes

In 2049 we find little evidence of the kind of high-tech gadgetry and interactive, holographic computer screens that we have become used to in sci-fi films. Instead we find what Set Decorator Querzola described to me as a “sidebar” view of the future. Villeneuve and the production team wanted to create a future which extended the vision of the first movie and they found a grounding in this vision by imagining how the year 2049 might look if Steve Jobs and Apple hadn’t existed. Lighting and cinematography also influenced the choice of furniture and design: “Roger Deakins had a big part in the creative process, we worked very closely looking at possible light s sources. Together we also designed and custom made light fixtures and testing all manner of materials” Querzola continues. So Ana has spent the last few years of her life in a single room inside a Replicant upgrade center, creating fake memories for Wallace, who implants them into his Nexus-9s. This is why K has the memory of the wooden horse. It’s in fact Ana’s memory from when she was a little girl and left behind in a San Diego scrap yard. As Ana explains to K during his initial investigation into whether he’s Rachael’s son, every designer of memories puts a little bit of him or herself in the memory. I was delighted to give a talk at a recent screening of Blade Runner 2049 hosted at the stunning The Conran Shop showroom in London’s Fulham Road in collaboration with Sony. I took this opportunity to dissect and discuss my favourite artefacts in the film. Here I share my opinions on the hidden narrative behind these objects, supplemented by fascinating facts gleaned from conversations with the movie’s Set Decorator Alessandra Querzola SDSA and Concept Artist Mike Hill. Given the technological, political and environmental news that has hit us over the last few months, the choice and design of many of these objects predict the future with more insight than one might realise. Blade Runner (1982) This book is for the fan- the images are crisp clear and huge! Its as if you have the film on pause and I think who ever put this book together it was a labour of love.A fittingly beautiful book that lives up to its somewhat presumptuous title. Having collected a number of "Art of" books, this is easily one of the best that I've actually read. In addition to providing loads of concept art, set photos, and stills from the finished product; this book also features a load of cast and crew interviews that cover a fair bit of what went into the making of the movie without overloading the reader.
