It’s no secret in my grouping of friends that I passionately love the Ridley Scott film Alien. Titan Books has just released the new J.W. Rinzler book, The Making of Alien and it is fabulous. This massive hardcover book doubles as both bragging rights for your coffee table and a sea of detailed information with storyboards. The concept art is stunning, and the book is designed to take the reader through the initial concepts, the first scripts, down to design, casting, and the film release.
The Making of Alien includes stunning artwork and details on the H.R. Giger designs. The book includes personal stories, and even promotional artwork from other countries.

The Making of Alien is a gorgeous book and a must have for fans of the franchise. It’s available now from Titan Books.
