Behind The Scenes Photos From Planet of the Apes(1967)

These photographs were taken on the set of the 1968 film Planet of the Apes. It’s really bizarre to see these simians just relaxing in full ape makeup between shooting scenes. These 1967 behind the scenes pictures were shot in California and show the apes smoking, eating, drinking, relaxing in the shade and doing other very human things.

It’s kind of amazing that they could do anything in those masks when not filming. They don’t even seem to mind all that much. Of course this film had a score of big name actors who were all professionals.

Your Favorite TV Shows And Movies As Children’s Books

A few weeks ago Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles hosted Storytime, a show of Joey Spiotto’s humorous work. These are kids books that are worthy of any kid’s book collection. Popular movies and TV shows turned into kids books. You can buy prints here.

I especially love the Borg book and the Planet Of The Apes book. Well, I love them all. Can’t pick a favorite. These books would put kids to sleep and fill their heads with all sorts of wonderful adventures. Amazing dreams would follow.

Planet Of The Apes Art By Alex Ross

The latest Planet of the Apes movie has me wanting to watch the old Planet of the Apes movies all over again, but before I do that, I thought I would share this poster art from comic artist Alex Ross. He has created four pieces of poster art inspired by the original Planet of the Apes. These are based on covers of the Boom Studios Comic book Planet of the Apes: Cataclysm. They were available for purchase at San Diego Comic-Con, but you can still buy them here. If any are left.

Each 17 x 22 inch giclee is a limited edition of 168. They will cost $145 each and $195 for #4. Sure, they are a tad expensive, but this is Alex Ross. And apes! Damn dirty apes!

Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes Concept Art

Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes will be hitting theaters next week, so we are all eager to see more of this world after the first installment. You might say we are going ape over it. To satisfy our Simian craving until then, we have some concept art from this movie as well as Rise of the Planet of the Apes.

These fantastic images come from a new art book that chronicles the design of both movies. It is titled Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes: The Art of the Films. The book is full of the production photography and concept art behind both films. It is a must buy for hardcore fans of the movies.
