This is actually a feature about the upcoming movie, showing off concept sketches from Moebius and Giger and the final designs that made it into the movie. With the contemporary release of Prometheus, these designs have a whole new power to them.

Although Ridley Scott was the director, Dan O’Bannon is credited with writing the screenplay. I like to think that he recommended Moebius as a concept designer because of the work they’d done together.
