 | Land & Environmental Art by Jeffrey Kastner
The traditional landscape genre was radically transformed in the 1960s when many artists stopped merely representing the land and made their mark directly in the environment. Drawn by the vast, uncultivated spaces of the desert and mountain as well as by post-industrial wastelands, artists such as Michael Heizer, Nancy Holt and Robert Smithson moved the earth to create colossal primal symbols. Others punctuated the horizon with man-made signposts, such as Christo's Running Fence and Walter De Maria's The Lightning Field. Journeys became works of art for Richard Long whilst Dennis Oppenheim immersed his entire body in the contours of the land. This book fully documents the 1960s Land Art movement as well as surveying later examples of Environmental Art to the present day. Earthworks, environments, performances and actions by artists ranging from Ana Mendieta in the 1970s-80s to Peter Fend in the 1990s are all illustrated with breathtaking photographs alongside sketches and project notes.

 | Storyboarding for Film, TV & Animation by John Hart
A storyboard serves the same functions in many visual presentations as an outlined does in word-based projects. Storyboarding is a skill that is very important for beginning directors to develop in pre-visualizing their shots and sets. It is also a critical skill in creating animation sequences, and is important to the multimedia developer in planning the needs of a project. This book will show beginners how to use storyboards to communicate their vision to the cinematographer, set designer and special effects supervisor, or to create the skeletal outline around which an animated program is developed, or to plan a multimedia project. It covers the history and evolution of this craft and discusses the essentials of translating one's vision onto paper, from the rough sketch to the finished storyboard. Illustrations from the author's and other storyboard artists' work illuminate the text throughout. AUTHOR: John Hart
