In the summer of 2002, Teves would meet with director Gore Verbinski. For the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Verbinski had the outline of a story and was talking to Johnny Depp, but there was no art department set up yet. In its earliest stage of visual development, Miles Teves was hired for one week's work to take on some of the key moments in the fledgeling script. Another artist was already hired to do the character design, so Teves did a few key frames and sketches. Though he regretted having to leave the project and move on to another film, Mile Teves did have a chance to make his mark.

  • In the summer of 2002, Teves would meet with director Gore Verbinski. For the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Verbinski had the outline of a story and was talking to Johnny Depp, but there was no art department set up yet. In its earliest stage of visual development, Miles Teves was hired for one week's work to take on some of the key moments in the fledgeling script. Another artist was already hired to do the character design, so Teves did a few key frames and sketches. Though he regretted having to leave the project and move on to another film, Mile Teves did have a chance to make his mark. Among his work, one of his drawings changed the film's script. One of the scenes Verbinski wanted Teves to sketch out was a shot of a "crew of zombiefied pirates" jumping into the water and swimming over to a ship to attack it. But Teves felt that something was wrong about it and, knowing he was soon moving on to another project, he created a different concept. Teves had a vision of the "zombiefied pirates" walking on a dark ocean floor, lit only by moonbeams. Feeling it had an iconic impact that swimming zombies couldn't have, Teves drew and colored it before handing it to Verbinski the following week with his other artwork. A year later, Teves sat at a screening of the film and saw his drawing, in motion, up there on the screen. People often told Teves that it was their favorite moment in the film, not knowing it was his idea.
