Andy Serkis on Heavenly Sword's King Bohan |
Ó
Andy Serkis was the actor behind the infamous Gollum and the tragic primate, King Kong. Now he lends his talents to Heavenly Sword's own King Bohan, the dictator emperor who wants to keep the sword for himself.In the interview, Serkis talks about how his motion-capturing experiences - how they aren't really all that different from acting, once you know the kinks of the medium. According to him, instead of being the actual actor, you're more of a puppeteer who controls the actor. He further explains:
Well, I'm slightly ambivalent about the difference between playing a character and being motion-captured. It's no different from being in costume, except that instead of having synthetic materials on your face you've been captured in a game. Simple as that.
One interesting thing the interview covered is how Serkis prepared for the role of Bohan. While he studied apes for "King Kong," it probably came natural that he study dictators to get into Bohan's mindset:
Bohan was this dictator that created his own moral universe where he was right. Rather than just playing an evil guy, you have to sort of believe in what you're doing - most dictators do. So I've been reading about dictators.
Not being an experienced gamer of sorts, he also talks about how he tries to familiarize himself with games:
I'm pretty hopeless at games, but I've been getting familiar with them. I love playing Shadow Of The Colossus, just riding round on my horse looking for colossi. I haven't actually found any yet, though.
