“Our visual team, led by Bazelevs’s storyboard artist Indar Dzhendubaev, created a rich and exciting world for the movie.  In revisiting their art, we tried to craft a book that pushes the envelope of visual design and does justice to their great work.  I am very happy that fans will finally get to enjoy the expanded world of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter.”



Bekmambetov’s production company Bazelevs has teamed up with Aspen MLT, Inc. to produce The Art of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.  David Wohl, who is overseeing the project as editor, divulged more about the behind-the-scenes book:


“Timur’s attention to detail and vision for the project, combined with the exquisite artwork for the film in the hands of Aspen’s designers, has created an “art-of” book that is truly unique and visually spectacular.  It’s been a pleasure to be part of this one-of-a-kind project.”
