Into the book
Filmmaking demands the highest level of collaboration, and design is no exception.
We applaud the designers featured in this book, and we thank all the artists who contributed to the evolving design tapestry of Avatar: Waterway.
No concept art or creative work makes it to the screen without the exceptional talent of the artists.
From the art and costume teams in Los Angeles and New Zealand, to the Lightstorm Labs team that built the virtual world, to the craftsmen who created, painted, and dressed the sets, props, and costumes, and finally the VFX team that breathed life into this magnificent world, countless professionals have painted the canvas with their own colors to create this stunning film.
We extend our deepest gratitude and respect to all of the members of the [Avatar: Waterway] project who have walked with us on this incredible journey, carrying the torch of inspiration with us to the very end.
