Inside Guillermo Del Toro's Sketchbook

For a few years I have had a keen interest in film/theatre posters and concept art. This interest was encouraged through my job working at an arena and theatre back home in Nottingham where I get to see a lot of advertising and artwork for the promotion of the shows. I recently took out a book from the library of Guillermo Del Toro's work, as I am a fan of his work in films like 'Pan's Labyrinth', where the imagery produced is very imaginative and atmospheric. In contrast to Del Toro's films being enhanced by stunning lighting and naturalistic visual effects, I was quite surprised to find his sketch's quite lo-fi and expressive.

There seems to be a running theme that work produced to an exceptional standard that demonstrates a vast amount of craftmanship starts off as a simple sketch. I have learnt a lot through looking at work which shows this kind of process and have a new found confidence when working through reflective ideas in my sketchbook.
