Apogee production used storyboards x6

Description

Original storyboards used during the production of David Lynch's 1984 film adaptation of Dune, based on the novel by Frank Herbert.

These storyboards were created at Apogee Inc who were originally contracted to provide the visual effects for the picture, headed up by effects pioneer John Dykstra who had previously won an Academy Award for his work on Star Wars before forming his own visual effects company in the late 1970's. Ultimately Apogee did not provide the effects and pulled out of the project altogether.

This lot consists of six production storyboards depicting various scenes of the movie. One of the storyboards bears Apogee's company logo stamped in red ink with the remaining five each hand inscribed in pen 'APOGEE' with the date '12-10-82', further to this shot numbers have been drawn around on each of the storyboards in pen. Measuring approximately 11" x 8.5" they remain in excellent condition throughout, very fine.

A rare and interesting collection of production material from the early days of this box office flop which later achieved cult status with science fiction fans.
