  • A Middle-Earth Traveller John Howe Bok PDF Epub Fb2 Boken
    A Middle-earth Traveller Ladda ner boken PDF John Howe A Middle-earth Traveller John Howe boken PDF Let acclaimed Tolkien artist John Howe take you on an unforgettable journey across Middle-earth, from Bag End to Mordor, in this richly illustrated sketchbook fully of previously unseen artwork, anecdotes and meditations on Middle-earth. Middle-earth has been mapped, Bilbo's and Frodo's journeys plotted and measured, but it remains a wilderland for all that. The roads as yet untravelled far outnumber those down which J.R.R. Tolkien led us in his writings. A Middle- earth Traveller presents a walking tour of Tolkien's Middle-earth, visiting not only places central to his stories, but also those just over the hill or beyond the horizon. Events from Tolkien's books are explored - battles of the different ages that are almost legend by the time of The Lord of the Rings; lost kingdoms and ancient myths, as well as those places only hinted at: kingdoms of the far North and lands beyond the seas. Sketches that have an `on-the-spot' feel to them are interwoven with the artist's observations gleaned from Tolkien's books as he paints pictures with his words as well as his pencil. He also recollects his time spent working alongside Peter Jackson on the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit film trilogies. Combining concept work produced for films, existing Middle-earth art and dozens of new paintings and sketches exclusive to this book, A Middle-earth Traveller will take the reader on a unique and unforgettable journey across Tolkien's magical landscape.

  • L'arte Di John Howe
    L’ARTE DI JOHN HOWE di Davide Cattaneo John Howe è considerato oggi uno tra i più famosi illustratori tolkieniani: molte sono le sue opere che hanno arricchito nel corso degli anni la vasta produzione di libri, mappe, poster, giochi di ruolo e da tavolo. Howe è nato nel 1957 a Voncouver in Canada; nel 1976 si è trasferito in Francia dove ha studiato illustrazione alla “Ecole des Arts Décoratifs” di Strasburgo; ha realizzato disegni per il cinema d’animazione, ha scritto e illustrato fumetti per l’editore francese Bande Dessinée e ha illustrato numerosi libri per bambini. Nel 1998 è stato chiamato, insieme all’illustratore Alan Lee, alla direzione artistica della trilogia cinematografica del regista neozelandese Peter Jackson.. Attualmente vive in Svizzera con la moglie Fataneh, anch’ella illustratrice, ed il loro figlio Dana. La collaborazione di Howe alla nuova trilogia cinematografica è evidente: molte sono le scenografie di interni ed esterni e numerose sono le sequenze cinematografiche tratte dalle illustrazioni realizzate dall’artista nel corso degli anni passati. Le opere di Howe assomigliano ad un fermo immagine, egli è molto bravo a catturare l’azione in un preciso istante, a trattenerla e dipingerla: molte sequenze viste nei primi due film usciti nelle sale sono, sotto molti aspetti, visualizzazioni tridimensionali di note illustrazioni tra le più drammatiche e coinvolgenti realizzate dall’artista. Tra queste si possono ricordare l’arrivo di Gandalf a casa Baggins, i quattro hobbit nascosti sotto le radici dell’albero per sfuggire al Cavaliere Nero, lo scontro con il Balrog nelle Miniere di Moria, i Cavalieri Neri travolti dall’impeto delle acque al guado di Bruinen e molti altri.

  • The Lord of the Films: the Unofficial Guide to Tolkien's Middle-Earth On
    Lord_oftheFilms_COVER_1.v7:_ 6/30/09 3:37 PM Page 1 First popularized in Tolkien’s classic and bestselling book series, The Lord of the BRAUN J.W. Rings has garnered millions of fans around the world. The stunning film tril- ogy by Peter Jackson was groundbreaking, beautiful, and, as expected, hugely successful. The Lord of the Films is a unique guide to those films, and author J.W. Braun tackles every scene in each movie on four different fronts: a closer look at the plot and the action, behind-the-scenes information, a reveal of mistakes that THE UNOFFICIAL GUIDE TO slipped through, and audiences’ reactions. In addition to Jackson’s famous TOLKIEN’S MIDDLE EARTH ON THE BIG SCREEN trilogy, other Tolkien-based films (such as the animated adaptations) are covered. As an added bonus, Braun reveals details about the prequel films currently in production and due out in theaters in 2011 and 2012. Look inside to find: The ❍ which two actors, both last-minute replacements for their parts, were thrown together and formed a lifelong bond as a result LORD ❍ which scene was written into the script after a fan wrote a letter to the filmmakers, explaining that it was Tolkien’s best writing ❍ what piece of music from The Fellowship of the Ring was edited directly into The Two Towers score ❍ which actors in these films were big fans of Tolkien when they auditioned, and which actors had never read The Lord of the Rings before joining of the the project 70 It’s all here, along with interviews, games and puzzles, and over exclusive FILMS illustrations and photographs.

  • The Breaking of the Fellowship
    THE BREAKING OF THE FELLOWSHIP A SCENARIO FOR WAR OF THE RING 2ND EDITION A SCENARIO BY ROBERTO DI MEGLIO & KRISTOFER BENGTSSON 2 • War of the Ring — Scenario It was the third evening since they had fled from the Company, as far as they could tell: they had almost lost count of the hours during which they had climbed and labored among the barren slopes and stones of the Emyn Muil, sometimes retracing their steps because they could find no way forward, sometimes discovering that they had wandered in a circle back to where they had been hours before. […] The hobbits stood now on the brink of a tall cliff, bare and bleak, its feet wrapped in mist; and behind them rose the broken highlands crowned with drifting cloud. A chill wind blew from the East. Night was gathering over the shapeless lands before them; the sickly green of them was fading to a sullen brown. Far away to the right the Anduin, that had gleamed fitfully in sun-breaks during the day, was now hidden in shadow. But their eyes did not look beyond the River, back to Gondor, to their friends, to the lands of Men. South and east they stared to where, at the edge of the oncoming night, a dark line hung, like distant mountains of motionless smoke. Every now and again a tiny red gleam far away flickered upwards on the rim of earth and sky. The Two Towers by J.R.R. Tolkien, Book IV, Chapter 1: The Taming of Sméagol. 2 • War of the Ring — Scenario The Breaking of the Fellowship • 3 INTRODUCTION ar of the Ring – The Breaking of the Fellowship is a scenario for the War of the Ring 2nd Edition W board game and modifies the setup of the game (see War of the Ring 2nd Edition Rulebook, page 14).

  • Press Release for the Lord of the Rings Sketchbook Published By
    Press Release The Lord of the Rings Sketchbook by Alan Lee • About the Book • About the Author ALAN LEE ON U.S. TOUR FOR THE LORD OF THE RINGS SKETCHBOOK About the Book In The Lord of the Rings Sketchbook, world-renowned artist Alan Lee reveals his approach to depicting J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginary world, on both the page and the screen. An internationally acclaimed illustrator of Tolkien's books, Lee was also one of the conceptual designers on The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, for which he earned an Academy Award®. To celebrate the publication of the book in October, Houghton Mifflin, Tolkien's official U. S. publisher for over sixty years, will bring Lee to the United States for a national tour. The Lord of the Rings Sketchbook presents more than one hundred-fifty of Lee's celebrated illustrations to show how his imagery for the illustrated Lord of the Rings and the films progressed from concept to finished art. In addition, the book features twenty full-color plates and numerous examples of the conceptual art produced for Peter Jackson's film adaptation. As Ian McKellen (who plays Gandalf in the films) notes in his thoughtful foreword to the book, it was Lee's illustrations of Tolkien's books — as well as artist John Howe's — that originally inspired Jackson's vision of Middle-earth. The sketchbook "feels and looks like other artists' records of great journeys to foreign lands," McKellen writes. "But in Alan Lee's case, his sketches of Middle-earth and its inhabitants preceded the travel, and the country he helped uncover in New Zealand was partly of his own making." Accompanying the artwork in the book is fascinating commentary by Lee, including personal anecdotes and explanations of his methods, his intent, and his role on a project as vast as the film trilogy.

  • “It's Still His Words”
    “It’s Still His Words”: The Language of Tolkien Set to Film BY JOHN D. RUDDY 1 “IT’S STILL HIS WORDS” THE LANGUAGE OF TOLKIEN SET TO FILM JRR Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings is a linguistic masterpiece constructed very precisely. Its language is carefully placed, its words are skillfully derived and the characters are, in dialogue, well thought out. The challenge of putting these books to film was for years seen as impossible, so when Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh and Philipa Boyens took on the task in 1997 to do the impossible, they had a very intricate process to go through. This thesis is going to look at the intricacies of how they managed to create the world of Tolkien but more specifically how they maintained Tolkien’s language. Peter Jackson himself described how “lines that Elrond would say in the book were given to Aragorn to say in the movie. A line that might appear in Lothlórien was suddenly put into the Mines of Moria. But they’re still Tolkien’s language, it’s still his words.” (0:02:24, From Book to Script). I intend to select some conversations and speeches from the films and dissect them and source their origins in the book. I will look at why certain alterations were made and how this very complex screenwriting process kept alive the words of omitted characters and the words of Tolkien himself. 2 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 4 THE INTRICACIES OF A FILM SCRIPT I The Voice of Saruman 6 II Shieldmaiden of Rohan 12 III Tolkien the Narrator 18 CONCLUSION 24 APPENDIX 26 BIBLIOGRAPHY 62 3 INTRODUCTION The Lord of the Rings is but one part of the vast mythology of Middle-Earth that John Ronald Reuel Tolkien created.
