A used bookshop on a rainy night...

Dinotopia: Journey to Chandara opens with the discovery of the lost Chandara journal of Arthur Denison.


To make the used bookstore look magical and mysterious, I wanted it to be a rainy twilight. I shot location reference in Tivoli, New York.

Then it was just a matter of turning the pizza shop into a bookstore, widening the sidewalk, and generally putting the smell of coffee into it.
