Resumo

A film storyboard is a large section of the film produced beforehand. Although they are like comics, they are essentially different, serving as tools in the making of the film. They allow producers to visualize the scenes and find potential problems before they occur. Many filmmakers have storyboarded only certain scenes or haven’t used them at all, but some have used it extensively in place of doing a script. This paper will examine the efficacy of the interaction between the production of Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut and storyboards by Christopher Baker, mainly the ones concerning the fantastic and dreamlike atmosphere of Arthur Schnitzler’s Dream Story in scenes such as Alice’s dream, the mask ball and the costume shop. I will try to compare parts of the storyboard with the abovementioned scenes in order to investigate their efficacy in conveying Schnitzler’s story.
