168pp, profusly illustrated in color and b&w. "Moving Still" is a personal portrait of filmmaking from American set decorator Lauri Gaffin. With four decades of experience on set, Gaffin intertwines stunning behind-the-scenes photographs and intimate narrative to provide a rare glimpse into the fascinating world of cinema. The book highlights life on set for indie gems Fargo and The Pursuit of Happyness as well as blockbuster hits such as Charlie's Angels, Iron Man and Thor. Through her photographs and engaging anecdotes, Gaffin unveils the collaborative spirit that binds directors, actors, production designers and crew members together. The contrast of her thriving career and complex emotional life are a through line in the book. Gaffin's photography remains a steadfast beacon of inspiration even as she navigates the demands of production—deadlines, budgets and politics—and her family's escalating turmoil. A brand new example additionally signed "Lauri Gaffin" in ink at Arcana.
