(More customer reviews)I bought this book for my sister's birthday but had to read it before giving it to her. She forgave me! I loved the beautiful pictures and really enjoyed reading about all of the behind the scenes information. The first part of the book was a little bit dry for me, I know film students will appreciate it, but I got a bit lost in all of the technical movie terms.
I loved the interviews with the actors, wish there could have been more. And, ok I'm a girl, I loved reading about the choices they had to make for wardrobe and hair and makeup and all that fun stuff. They talk about how Bella's hair goes from romantic curls, to unkempt mess, then to a more natural look. I also liked reading about how they made Jacob transform from the school boy look to a more mature hard look. They actually put eyeliner on him and used makeup to contoure his cheeks and jaw line.
It was interesting to read how this new director wanted to make the film warmer than the first because Jacob is Bella's sun, and how he had to completely redo the color pallet. No more blue overcast to everything, instead he wanted a warmer golden tone. I like it!
My favorite part was reading how they filmed the whole cliff diving scene. Gave me new respect for Kristen and what she had to do for her part. I think it would be pretty cool to be an actor, aside from the crazy fans.
