DRAGON BLADE

Translator | English Language Consultant

When corrupt Roman leader Tiberius (Adrien Brody) arrives with a giant army to claim the Silk Road, Huo An (Jackie Chan) and his group of trained warriors team up with an elite legion of defected Roman soldiers led by General Lucius (John Cusack) to maintain the delicate balance of power in the region. To protect his country and his new friends, Huo An gathers the warriors of thirty-six ethnic nations together to fight Tiberius in an incredible epic battle.

Background

I spent two and a half months in China working on the $US65 million DRAGON BLADE. My role was as an English language consultant. My job involved various things including proof reading the English language script pages and correcting grammatical errors, drawing up cue cards for Adrien Brody, John Cusack, and Jackie Chan then as the scenes were being filmed I would transcribe the English language takes for the editors. In my free time I sketched on set. Click for full image.
