Product Synopsis
«©NCSX»
In the FFVII Advent Children movie, Cloud led the
old FF7 gang against another gang who turned
out to be far more of a threat than first figured.
With Materia bursting in the air and all manner of
drama afoot, the Cloud team nevertheless prevailed
against adversity...
To capture the lush detail of the movie, the soul of the
characters, and the work that went into making the
film, Square Enix and Softbank Creative ship the
FFVII AC Reunion Files book which spans 120 thick
and glossy pages of artwork, photographic evidence,
and Japanese/English commentary. Every bit of text
that's in Japanese is translated into English as
well for Western audiences to enjoy.
The first portion of the book checks out the characters starting
with Cloud Strife. Marvel at the frosted lens screen
captures of the spiky blonde as he emotes and read
up on his profile as well as copious Staff Notes on
how the script was written to portray Cloud's
demeanor. On pages 38-39, the staff describe the
character Rude's appearance and mark him to be of
possible South American ethnicity. He looks more
like "The Rock" who is Samoan with the same sneer.
We expect Rude to arch an eyebrow behind his shades.
The character files concludes with a look at
Sephiroth with interesting Staff Notes to pore
through.
The next portion of the book takes readers through the
conceptualization of the FFVII AC movie from initial
proposal to the storyboards to how the creative
staff decided on the setting of the film. The
detailed recap of the creation of the movie makes
this book a perfect companion piece for the FFVII AC
DVD with a raft with background information, color
commentary, and most importantly, detailed Staff
Notes which give the reader the motives of the
designers and their interpretations of the
characters in the movie.
To conclude the book, a Story Digest retells the broad summary of
the film with screen caps of key scenes such as
Cloud's reunion with his FF7 team mates where
everyone collaborated to vault him higher in a clash
against an airborne Materia named Bahamut Sin.
Untold stories from the making of the movie are also
included for some insight from Nojima and Nomura on
how they felt about the production. The final page
of the book consists of Editor Notes and information
on a FFVII AC Pamphlet Contest.
