As the on-set photographer of Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, Stephen Vaughan watched the making of one of cinema's most revered films from the shadows. The first book drawn from his archive, discovered after his death in 2018 by his executor, the screenwriter and producer Dionne Jones, it reverse-engineers the film through the original contact sheets and other ephemera from his personal collection: a collage of unseen images that celebrates Scott's 1982 masterpiece in a new way and offers devotees of the cult film a deeper, more personal look at its making. Original essays by the actress Joanna Cassidy, the Blade Runner scholar Paul Sammon, the television writer Bill Fordes, the novelist Joanne McNeil and Dionne Jones accompany the pictures. The contact sheets show film strips with their frame numbers, among them cast and crew gathered around the actors on set.
