Working from Lucas's ideas for scenes and sequences, these artists produced beautiful drawings that helped lay the foundations for the worlds, characters, and shots of the \u003ci\u003eStar Wars\u003c\/i\u003e Prequel Trilogy. Together, these conceptual storyboards show early takes on favorite scenes; alternate, unused approaches to character designs and environments; and entirely different approaches to key moments. Like wordless comic books, they have an energy and rhythm all their own that is fascinating to explore.\u003cbr\u003e Now, for the first time, Lucasfilm has opened its archives to present the best of the conceptual storyboards for Episodes I, II, and III. \u003ci\u003eStar Wars Storyboards: The Prequel Trilogy\u003c\/i\u003e collects the best storyboards from all three films together in one striking volume. Throughout this book, readers will find insight into how these conceptual storyboards helped to contribute both to the creation of the Prequel Trilogy and the expansion of the \u003ci\u003eStar Wars\u003c\/i\u003e universe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Praise for Stars Wars Storyboards: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"We had no idea the \u003ci\u003eStar Wars\u003c\/i\u003e prequels could have been this good  Overall, the book gave us a new appreciation for what could have been . . .
