“I’m not gonna narrow it down to one particular shot but I am very pleased in how Davy Jones turned out. That was a very important character to gore at the beginning of the picture. He’s a major character, delivers a lot of dialogue, his performance is extremely important. We’re gonna see him in close-up, in daytime, nighttime, in the rain… in all kinds of conditions and he’s just gotta be fantastic. So we poured a lot of effort into it and I’m very pleased with how that turned out.”
Knoll went on to acknowledge the crew ofDead Man’s Chest,“I really enjoyed the onset work with the crew,”but he didn’t forget to thank Nighy as he“was fantastic and he took a really great leap of faith that we weren’t going to make him look silly.”Knoll worked on the first threePirates of the Caribbeanfilms as a visual effects supervisor under Industrial Light & Magic.
