内容説明
Michael Jackson: The Making of "Thriller" is an illustrated tribute to the King of Pop and his groundbreaking music video, with never-before-seen photos of its creation. The book features over 200 exclusive, behind-the-scenes photographs of the artist on set during the 1983 production of the Grammy award winning video directed by John Landis.
Considered to be the most successful project of all time, "Thriller" is beloved the world over, inspiring imitation and a cult-like following of millions of fans. Documenting the creation of the most popular and iconic music video of all time, this book celebrates the artist and his music at the top of his career.
Famed photographer Douglas Kirkland and journalist Nancy Griffin were the only members of the media allowed on the set of the video. The resulting photos capture Jackson both in high performance mode and relaxing on the set and depict his transformation into the characters in the video as well capturing the public and private faces of Michael Jackson.
Compelling, intimate photos of the artist are accompanied by interviews and quotes from musicians and celebrities, including Sir Paul McCartney, Diddy, Beyonce, Steven Spielberg and many more. With a holographic cover that, when tilted, transforms the artist into his zombie character, the book is an impressive gift to be treasured by fans and music lovers everywhere.

Thriller撮影中に随行したカメラマンが出したもので、写真とともに、著名人のマイケルへの思いが詰まった言葉、文章がちりばめられているという、写真集＋追悼本、といった形態の様です。
Thrillerの撮影自体に関連する話は、前半の、カメラマンとメイクの方の文章のみだと思われます。
（英文なので、断定口調で書けず、あいまいな表現となってしまい、スミマセン・・・。）
計192ページのフル・カラー、予想以上に写真が多い（ほぼ毎頁）し、装丁もしっかりしていて、お値段もお手頃。
ただ、一つ、大変残念に思ったのが、・・・狼男とゾンビのマイケル写真が、多過ぎでないか・・・???
その数、何と、約140頁! 皆さん、変身マイケル、そんなに見たいですか???
（いや、確かに変身シーンは、Thrillerの醍醐味の一つではありますが・・・。）
・・・にも関わらず、★4つなのは、あと約50ページの素のマイケルが、とても素敵だからです!
撮影の合間の自然体のマイケルは、どれも初めてみたショットばかりでした。
これだけでも、やはり買ってよかったです。
この頃のマイケルがお好きな方には、お勧めですョ!

Great photos, unwelcome commentary
2010/10/25
形式:ハードカバー
Jackson fans will surely want this volume for their collections, with the behind the scenes photos of the making of the Thriller short film. True, many are still shots that can be seen in action contained within "The Making of Michael Jackson's Thriller" home video, but many are seen here for the first time. What is disappointing and keeps tis from being a truly "5 star" volume is the random and unnecessary commentary from Nancy Griffin, whose discomfort with the king of pop taints the volume from the beginning. She is a journalist by trade, but yet says "whether Michael Jackson was a victim or a perpetrator in his later years, we will never know". Hey, journalist, how about doing some reserach and reading the trial transcripts, and then you'll have your answer! She also says "one thing we know for sure, he did not find happiness". So, there is definitely judgement cast by Griffin, but at least her comments are contained almost entitely within the Introduction - fans will move on quickly.
Elsewhere, Douglas Kirkland makes the comment "What a waste!" in reference to the suggestion that co-star Ola Ray seemed interested in Michael because Michael "wasn't wired that way", and the reader is left to interpret this for themselves.
Finally, I always wonder why "experts" on Jackson's career imply that it was all down hill after Thriller, when even a quick survey of history will tell you that his most popular days, best selling tours, and subsequent new world records in number one songs were still a few years away. What certainly was "all down hill" after Thriller was the media's handling of Michael Jackson. It is but too bad the volume is tainted with some unnecessary speculation, but its value is as a photographic time capsule of a very significant event in music history.

A "thrilling" visual orgasm...
2010/10/23
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
Starting from the lenticular cover showing Michael as man and zombie, the book invites you to remember, reminisce, dream about Michael back in 1983. This is the Michael I fell in lust with, that teenage crush I had at age 15. I hated Ola Ray, that lucky girl. This book brings me back to those schoolgirl, jealous twinges again. The pictures of Michael and Ola Ray flirting behind the scenes. Ahhhh....
The book is colorful and engaging. The little notes about what was going on were informative, but I admit I bought the book for the lovely pictures of Michael. It also gives location information which I love as I like to travel around LA following Michael's footsteps. IMO, it had too many costume pictures, I want the more natural, movie theater scene Michael, before the zombie and werewolf pictures, like the ones outside of the Palace Theater in downtown LA, but I know this book encompasses the whole 4 days.
Please, buy the book, BUT please do not read the unnecessary, and I feel derogatory opinions/beliefs of the person who wrote the introduction, Nancy Griffin. Why the author, Douglas Kirkland added this in this otherwise perfect visual orgasm of a book is beyond me!!!
Michael Jackson in 1983 is, to me, perfection, his beautiful eyes, those sexy lips, ahhh... I need to take a minute.
OK, I am back... At 15 and now at age 42, the Thriller era has always been my favorite and I am so happy that this book celebrates this era in the life of Michael Jackson. It is a wonderful piece of history that I cherish and tie much of my teen memories to. Thank you Douglas Kirkland for preserving this for us lifelong MJ fans and for exposing this experience to new fans alike.

nice, but......
2010/10/30
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
The photos in this book are nice to have and I have enjoyed reading all the artist's comments in the book about Michael Jackson. But if you feel you must own this book please disregard the words of authors of this book, Douglas Kirkland and Nancy Griffin. They are simply unaware that whatever it is that makes a journalist tick is something that is extremely destructive to an artist like Jackson and decidedly unhelpful to the general public and their grasp of what art really is. This book contributes nothing to the subject of why Thriller is the single most enduring and beloved work in the genre. The authors are unable to give an accurate synopsis in the beginning chapter "The Story of the Thriller". Their observations and remembrances about being on the set reveal a lack of understanding about the film and the artists who created it. Their reflections on Jackson's life show they didn't do their homework on Michael Jackson before putting out a book about him. I'm afraid we still have to wait if we want a good informative book about Michael Jackson and the making of Thriller.
