Shin Shiryo Kaidoku Ultra Seven Satsuei Nisshi [Newly Revised Edition]

[Machine Translation] Ultra Seven" is one of the most famous special effects dramas of the Showa era. This book, which contains the contents of the "Filming Diary," a record of the production site, and was also used as material for the production of the 4K remastered version, is back in a newly revised edition with 16 additional color pages to coincide with the 55th anniversary of "Seven"! Inheriting the heroism of "Ultraman" (1966), "Ultra Seven" (1967) still boasts strong popularity and high acclaim thanks to its stylish design work that has been further sharpened and its deep insight into humanity contained in the scenario. In the Showa era (1926-1989), when 3DCG and other visual technologies of the day were only products of fantasy---Tsuburaya Productions' on-site struggles were deciphered from the filming diaries of the time and summarized in the well-received "New Material Decipherment: Ultra Seven Filming Diary" (2017, reprinted in Japanese only). The contents of the book are a bunch of logbooks discovered in a warehouse of Tsuburaya Productions several years ago. The logbooks, which were divided into two groups (Group A and Group B), contained detailed reports on when and where filming took place, what actors did, what characters were active, and so on. *However, we do not have a complete set of journals for all episodes. The "New Material Decipherment: Ultra Seven Filming Logbooks," in which the contents of the logbooks are organized, edited, and converted into text, and edited by episode number, contains not only the descriptions of the logbooks, but also a wealth of information on the works and staff to supplement the contents, as well as photographs of the logbooks themselves. In the revision work commemorating the 55th anniversary of the broadcast, a new 16-page color "Ultra Seven Filming Calendar (1667-68)" has been added. It looks back on the production and broadcast schedule from June 1967 to September 1968, in order to capture the actual scenes in a more three-dimensional manner. The "Ultra Seven" filming calendar (1667-68), coincidentally, corresponds to the 2023-24 calendar in terms of both date and day of the week, making it possible to overlap the schedule of 55 years ago with the time in 2023-24, creating a "multiverse experience" through the calendar. This book provides a glimpse into the locations where directors such as Akio Jissoji, Hajime Tsuburaya, and Toshihiro Iijima worked with their cameras, and the hardships faced by special effects directors such as Koichi Takano, Toru Matoba, and Jun Ohki. It is a first-class resource for readers who have been fascinated by monsters and aliens at least once. What were the thoughts and experiences of the film crew 55 years ago, at the site of the special effects team where Seven and the aliens and monsters fight, or at the site of the feature film team where Dan and Anne are active? We hope you will enjoy the realistic feeling of the scene through this book. This is a revised edition of "Ultra Seven Filming Logbook" published by Reprint.com in 2017. ( c ) Tsuburaya Productions
