Vidders Notes: I adore these films. So much fun, so pretty and Johnny Depp at his best. And that's without mentioning the wonderful supporting cast.  The vid idea germinated from the second song - clues in the lyrics which seemed to just be 'Jack' - but as I discussed with my daughter I said I wanted to show  Jack's view of himself (epic hero)  and then how he really is most of the time (a usually 'lucky' rogue with his own interest at heart) . Anyway he is truly the best pirate I've ever seen.  And to prove my point there was this very ratio of epic clips to 'silly' ones. I had a lot of fun making this one. I hope you all enjoy it. 

Also Buffy fans please excuse me using the Chosen score - I wanted something inspirational, epic and full of the sense of battle. And there it was. I think it suits him too.

HEEEEEEEE. Fun! Depp looks like he had a ball making these films.

I think he really did - especially where he gets to work with Keith Richards as Depp is a bit of a rocker.

Glad you enjoyed the vid - I had a lot of fun making this one.

Yay, this is great! I love the concept and the music use is amazing, especially the compass at the end and pole hitting the ground next to his head (and many more). Cool vid :)

Aw thanks - there were some great 'sounds' in that song that just begged to be match with visuals. And I just couldn't help myself.

Oh, this vid is a lotta fun!

I was just starting to feel a bit of epicness fatigue and I was going to look how much longer the vid was when it switched to the other music (I hadn't noticed that there were two songs credited). The rest of the vid had me grinning and from time to time giggling. :-)

Yes I thought I'd use the epic cliche as a faux intro for the real Jack. Glad it made you giggle
