NBC’s “Hannibal” is a meticulous macabre creation of near infinite beauty. That praise may seem hyperbolic, but should ring true for those of you who’ve even digested one episode. So it’s no surprise that the fine folks at Titan Books have taken notice and collaborated with the show’s development team to create a beautiful behind the scenes look at what goes into crafting the perfect murder.
The surrealist element to “Hannibal” is on full display here. The show manages to channel your deepest fears and projects them onto otherworldly visions of creature who are alien and threatening. These photos offer a behind the scenes look at Will’s descent into hallucinatory states that push him to see the Stag-Man. A horrid creature who’s leathery black skin absorbs all the light around it. Just when things are going well, the stag-man rears his ugly head and reminds us that nothing is what it seems in this show.
In case you missed it, we called “Hannibal” the best television show of 2014, and are eagerly anticipating the new season. If you simply cannot wait for season three, “The Art and Making of ‘Hannibal'” should serve as the perfect appetizer. At 176 pages, the monster book serves as the perfect companion piece to any cannibal’s coffee table, and should inspire quite the discussion at dinner parties.
“A highly illustrated art and making of book featuring extracts of the shooting scripts of the first and second seasons, exclusive cast and crew interviews, behind-the-scenes photography, production notes, storyboards, Hannibal’s sketches and music notation. This volume would also include detailed sketches of the murder scenes and sets as well as food stylist designs of Hannibal’s most infamous dinner parties. “The Art and Making of ‘Hannibal'” will be a detailed look at the making of this highly original and visually stunning series. This will be a high quality title, lavishly produced and packed with great exclusive content.”
‘The Art and Making of ‘Hannibal'” is now available where ever fine books are sold. Or you can grab it right here from Titan Books.
