Laws of the Jungle Right: The other prisoners listen as Dengler lays out his escape plan. The filmmakers set scenes in the hut at different times of day to help suggest the passage of time. Below: Herzog outlines his plan for the actors. Herzog’s dictum that there is no storyboarding, ever. “You don’t find it in the past and you won’t find it in Rescue Dawn, nor in the future,” says the director, who even gave Zeitlinger license to critique the acting. “On one scene, for example, Peter stopped the camera and said, ‘Werner, we have to go into it once more. The scene has no rhythm.’ And he was right. Something to do with how the actors would mill around and how the camera would get into it had no rhythm. So in five minutes flat, we came up with an alternative version that all of a sudden flowed and worked and had suspense and rhythm.” “As the operator, I’m the first audience,” says Zeitlinger. “Sometimes Werner accepted my comments and sometimes he didn’t. That’s my way of working with all directors, because I’m not looking at only the framing, I’m also listening to what the actors are saying and trying to feel the scene. If the performance does not really express what it should, I will feel it and say that to the director.” During prep for Rescue Dawn, Zeitlinger proposed shooting in a widescreen format, with the rationale that “it’s shaped more like the view our eyes have of the world. It’s more a window into the world than a framed image. And I thought it would help our intention to create reality.” However, Herzog doesn’t care 48 July 2007
