Description

Part oral history based on original interviews with the show's cast and crew, part art book--including sketches, storyboards, and background art--this official behind-the-scenes companion book traces the hit series from conception to post-production.
 
Beginning with the initial development of creator/showrunner Raphael Bob-Waksberg and production designer Lisa Hanawalt's inimitable aesthetic vision, The Art Before the Horse goes on to reveal all of the moving parts--direction, writing, casting, animation, and music--that come together to form this uniquely bleak, emotionally potent, very funny show.

Netflix's BoJack Horseman remains one of the most critically acclaimed animated comedy series of all time. Set in an off-kilter, cynically spun rendering of modern-day Hollywood, the show follows washed-up horse actor BoJack Horseman (voiced by Will Arnett) as he attempts to turn his life around.

This collectible book is the perfect immersion in the world of BoJack Horseman.

Reviews

"The sumptuous and comprehensive "Bojack Horseman: The Art Before the Horse"... is fascinating." 

"Netflix's BoJack Horseman has cemented itself as one of the best comedies - animated or live-action - of the past decade, thanks in large part to its meticulously detailed world and the fascinating design of its quirky characters. Every scene is brimming with visual gags, ridiculous animal puns and Hollywood-skewering easter eggs, to the point where it's impossible to catch them all in a single viewing - which is why a new book, BoJack Horseman: The Art Before the Horse, should appeal to fans of all stripes (and spots)."

"For fans of BoJack HorsemanThe Art Before the Horse offers over 200 pages of fun, behind-the-scenes tidbits and images that you just won't find anywhere else."
