Go abroad to become a director and overturn Hollywood at the box office

Chapter 82 Let’s talk about characters, this is your gift
Keira Knightley saw the big pause in his speech and asked curiously: "Just what? Mr. Rush."

Geoffrey Rush: "It's just that this is a fantasy film, and the difficulty is probably no lower than "The Matrix."

Qin Feng said with a smile: "This is indeed my first time filming a fantasy film, but fortunately, our team is making full preparations and I believe we can overcome all difficulties."

Johnny Depp sat down unsteadily.

Qin Feng asked: "Has everyone received and read the script?"

"I've seen it all."

"seen it already."

The four said together.

"Okay, let's talk about the characters again." Qin Feng looked at Depu.

"Mr. Depu, the role you play as Captain Jack is the most important, especially his character."

"Yeah." Johnny Depu listened carefully.

"Jack is bohemian and has a changeable personality. His favorite food is peanuts and rum, and he also likes all kinds of beautiful women. He has no nationality and no restraints. He is one of the nine pirate kings in the world."

"He looks a little crazy, but he is resourceful; he is selfish like a pirate, but he is also affectionate and loyal to his own people; he is not afraid of danger, but he is often timid."

"He is the most complex person in this play, and also the most outstanding character..."

Johnny Depu nodded and stroked his mustache, "In my understanding, what Jack admires most is freedom and the sea, followed by the 'Black Pearl'."

"Almost no force can stop him from pursuing freedom, and this freedom will add to his great personal charm."

"Yes!" Qin Feng agreed.

Unexpectedly, Depu had a very deep understanding of the character.

"Mr. Depu, you are right. In people's minds, pirates themselves are free. They wander on the sea and live a free and easy life. And Jack's existence is based on the pirates and is more spiritual. free."

"Each of us will be trapped by all aspects of reality, but Jack, he has always lived happily and freely. He is a truly free person."

"One thing he cares about is the title 'Captain'. This title represents his self-esteem. It may be an honor, or it may be a symbol of freedom in itself."

Qin Feng thought for a while, "I hope you can fully understand a character who completely advocates freedom from his speech, gestures, and walking."

Johnny Depu took a deep breath, feeling Qin Feng's words, and after a moment, "I have to think about it..."

"No hurry, take your time."

Qin Feng turned to Orlando Bloom, "Mr. Orlando, the role you play is the little blacksmith Will Turner. Although he is a blacksmith, he is also the son of the pirate Bill Turner."

Orlando Bloom sat upright, crossed his hands, and looked straight at Qin Feng.

"His presence runs throughout the entire movie, and even when Barbossa and the others want to lift the curse at the end, his blood will be the key to the entire ending."

"He is an upright and kind-hearted young man who is loyal and dedicated to love, values ​​affection and justice, and sometimes acts a little recklessly."

Orlando Bloom nodded, "I understand, Director Qin."

Qin Feng smiled slightly and turned to Jeffrey Rush.

"Mr. Rush, we have discussed your role before in Australia."

Geoffrey Rush: "Yes, Director Qin."

Qin Feng: "Captain Barbossa is the most pirate-like character. He is cunning, domineering and scheming."

Geoffrey Rush laughed: "I like these adjectives."

Qin Feng walked to the desk, took out a few photos from the drawer and handed them to him.

"In the setting of the script, Barbossa will have a pet monkey, also named Jack. These are the three monkeys we found."

"Now they are all domesticated in Disneyland. In addition to participating in some physical training, you also have to strengthen some relationships with these little guys. This will be beneficial to later shooting."

Geoffrey Rush took the photo and looked at it with interest.

"Well...yes, I can." Qin Feng looked at Keira Knightley again.

Keira Knightley was blinking at him expectantly.

Qin Feng said: "Miss Keira, we have also discussed your role."

Keira Knightley: "Yes, Director Qin, I'm eager to hear what you have to say again."

"Well, what I need to talk about now is still her character. Although Elizabeth Swann is worth a fortune, she does not use it as a vase. On the contrary, she is extremely brave and persistent."

"She longs for justice, but she doesn't think pirates are evil. She has her own sense of right and wrong, and she will do whatever it takes for the justice in her heart."

Keira Knightley nodded, "Director Qin, I understand."

Qin Feng told them about the current preparation progress and talked about other things.

I looked at my watch and saw that it was almost time to get off work.

"It's getting late today. Let's go back to the hotel and rest first. Come to the company early tomorrow morning. We'll try on the clothes first and take makeup photos."

"In addition, the company has prepared training rooms and swimming pools for several people, with special coaches. Everyone should try to exercise as much as possible before starting the filming."

"Of course, we won't do very strict physical training this time. Everything will be done step by step."

The four actors stood up.

"Well, Director Qin, you should also be busy."

"Director Qin, let's go."

Orlando Bloom remembered something and took out a green pendant from his suit pocket.

"By the way, Director Qin, this is the gift that Director Jackson asked me to bring to you when I came here."

"He said it was Maori green jade, a nephrite jade, a local talisman."

"Oh? Thank you so much, Director Jackson."

Qin Feng took the pendant and saw that it was green all over and felt very warm in his hand. It was indeed nephrite.

The pendant is made into a small figure of a local god in a special shape, and the workmanship is very exquisite.

Presumably this kind of jade and patterns are only found in Zealand.

……

The next day.

The four actors came to the company to try on their costumes and take makeup photos.

The stylists received the assignment yesterday and were waiting in the dressing room early in the morning.

Finalized character concept art is taped to the front mirror for reference.

The makeup process lasted for a long time, and when it was almost over, Qin Feng also came over.

Next to the dressing room is a small photo studio with a green curtain wall and lights and reflectors set up around it.

There were three photographers shooting here.

When Johnny Depp steps in front of the green screen.

I saw that his head was wrapped in red cloth, with dreadlocks, his hair was messy at the back, his face was painted with smoky makeup, and his beard was divided into two strands under his chin.

He was wearing a pirate costume covered with dust and wear marks, holding a sword in his right hand and a gun in his left hand.

At the current station, he is leading the way, with indescribable freedom and domineering.

Qin Feng's eyes lit up.

Handsome!This is the real Captain Jack Sparrow!
