Storyboarding DUNE 2 with Denis Villeneuve

A compilation of interview segments with Denis where he, once again, reveals his use of drawing in developing the stories and visuals of his films. I've added some exclusive storyboard examples by Villeneuve's collaborator Sam Hudecki.

As a storyboard artist for the past 35 years, this is awesome to hear.

Just studying the artistic composition of each frame is mesmerising enough

Someday I wanna be a director, and I draw since I was born. Today I'm depressed but see those Villeneuve's storyboards (drawing with another artist) really inspiring me for making this during my futur filmaking process. Thanks for sharing this !

This dude is a true artist. Inspiring every time he opens his mouth.

[larsomat]

Awesome to watch this. His approach brought art back to blockbuster cinema. And it shows!

Love this reaction, man! Can't lie, this movie cracks tears out of me every time I see it

"The storyboard supercedes the screenplay, and then nature supercedes the storyboard."

These boards are magnificent and so is the movie from what I hear! I'm going to see it soon with my GF. I am happy that Mr. Villeneuve is speaking publicly about his utilization of boards and celebrating his relationship with his storyboard artist. This is all to his credit as a filmmaker and not a detraction, which I think is a fear that a lot of directors have. Without storyboards, I have seen directors "wind up" with a movie instead of guiding it creatively from start to finish. I was a script supervisor for over seven years and saw most directors Wind Up with a movie.

Huge Congrats to Mr. Villeneuve and to storyboard artist Sam Hudecki! And to audiences everywhere for a monument in filmmaking!

I am reminded of Alejandro Jodorowsky who used Moebius to extensively storyboard his vision of Dune.

[erictzogas]

You can do this idea with so many different ips and I’d watch every one. Eg. Marvel characters, pirates of the Caribbean, game of thrones. Anything. Good stuff

[inkandgrowrich]

The number one question that leaps out at me when I look at this is "Why did they storyboard in a 4:3 aspect ratio??"

[joaoalbertofn]

I'd guess he uses the storyboard to find the "felling" of each scene. Not necessarily the image.

[matthewkeating-odrl]

Ok where is the story boards for the dune movie never made thatvwere drawn by mobius would love to see that book.

Dune was amazing (I’m one of the biggest Frank Herbert fans)…… but Oppenheimer absolutely blew everything away. 😉

He is a master stylist. Like Joe Johnston, he struggles to make his characters have charisma and chemistry.
