Kung Fu Panda 3's Concept Art Is As Stunning As The Film

Animation is a special form of storytelling in that the work-in-progress is often as beautiful as the final product.

Such is the case with Kung Fu Panda 3, the latest animated feature film from DreamWorks Animation. The film reunites the lovable Po with his father and a whole village of fellow pandas, and is full of visual splendors, from characters, to locations, to fight scenes.

The Art of Kung Fu Panda 3 is a hardcover book that dives into the making of film. The coffee table book is full of concept art, character designs, and storyboards that offer insights into how the film was made while standing on their own merits.

Publisher Insight Edition sent us a review copy of the book, and a few sample spreads to share with our readers. Check them out in the gallery below.

Kung Fu Panda 3 is in theaters now.
