The Art of Monsters University - Steve Henderson (For Skwigly)

Skwigly is a great online magazine for animators.
That's because they post films, showcases, podcasts, reviews and keep us up to date on the latest events happening in the animation world.
One review I found interesting to read was The Art of Monsters University by Steve Henderson:

Heres a little snippet of the article:

I like seeing the original imagery created before it gets to the big screen, as it shows the development of their thoughts and characters.
Because it's a prequel to the origins - Monsters Inc (also one of the best films of my childhood), a lot of the world has already been created. So the artists could use the same style in this film, but have a different scene, what with the film being set 10 or 20 years before the original.
So seeing this development from Pixar through one book is nice to see, since this will make it easier for fans to follow the process of the film making.
