Riot Games teamed up with Fortiche and Melcher Media to create and publish The Art and Making of Arcane. This is a collection of artwork and behind the scenes information on the creation of the Netflix animated series Arcane.
Excuse me, I meant to say Emmy-winning Netflix animated series, Arcane. This series is obviously based off of the League of Legends franchise and was created in a collaboration between Riot Games and animation studio Fortiche Productions. The Art and Making of Arcane was written by Elisabeth Vincentelli and chronicles "the artistry poured into seasons one and two of Arcane, leading the series to critical acclaim, fan fervor, and becoming the first streaming series to win the Emmy award for Outstanding Animated Series."
The Art and Making of Arcane will be released later this year. It will include interviews with the show's creators, studio leads, and directors. Pre-orders are up now with the Standard Edition starting at $60, Portfolio Edition at $160, and Artifact Edition at $550.
The Art and Making of Arcane will be published in three editions: the Artifact Edition, the Portfolio Edition, and the Standard Edition. All editions of the book will include a Jinx poster, a removable map of Piltover, an in-world blueprint, a Vander Letter, fold-out spreads showcasing content from seasons one and two, and more.
The Artifact and Portfolio Editions come replete with exclusive items, and there’s even a very special Jinxed Edition variant limited to only 40 copies. These bonus treasures are unavailable anywhere else. From tarot cards and exclusive art prints to autographs, a vinyl album of the season one score by Alex Seaver and Alexander Temple, and two bookends/statues, there are items in each package that will thrill Arcane and League of Legends fans, allowing them to dive even deeper into the art and world they love and bring a special piece of it home.
PORTFOLIO EDITION:
Never one to let a ceremony pass undisrupted, Jinx has left her indelible mark on 40 hyper-rare, totally exclusive, and randomly distributed copies of the Artifact Edition! Will you be lucky enough to get Jinxed?
The Standard, Portfolio, and Artifact Editions of The Art and Making of Arcane will be published on December 31, 2024. The Standard Edition is available for preorder now wherever books are sold. The Portfolio and Artifact Editions will be available directly from Insight Editions.
