curleysound Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 They had a lot of fun naming the shots! Also, no smart slate... What's up with that? Also, language is NSFW Inglourious Basterds - Quentin Tarantino's Camera Angel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProSound Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I am going to save this video to show to the next producer that says a Smart Slate is a must for production....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPSharman Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 That is wonderful! What really struck be were scenes that had gone through the alphabet over 5 times!! It seems some of the actors were annoyed at times, but she prevailed. Adios, fuckers! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatfatjames Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 i will ask our slate department in singapore to try this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Lopez Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 It's a very nice idea! At long hours this way of calling the slate, can break the tension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiomprd Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 sometimes we do theme days.... I remember doing liquids: when we got to X = "Xerex ...the anti-freeze!" then we hit Z and I said: "Zerex: X was a misspelling!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadoStefanov Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Do you know where to buy a slate like this? sometimes we do theme days....

Marc Wielage Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 They had a lot of fun naming the shots! Also, no smart slate... What's up with that? Quentin is not a fan of digital technology and is very much a traditionalist. I'm told that he believes that timecode slates are a distraction. Post facilities doing his work just add another 1-2 hours per dailies session for the additional time needed to manually sync the clap sticks, depending on the amount of footage. It's not that big a deal, provided the production company can afford the extra charges. (This amounts to about $1000 per day for HD dailies. For a $50M+ movie, it's fairly trivial.) --Marc W.

Zack Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 The last film I worked on, we had this little competition of who could come up with the goofiest naming scheme with our slates. It all started when I tried making a point about using "correct phonetics" haha. We were also getting a bit loopy shooting at 4am in 25 degree weather.

pverrando Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Of course, a cute girl with a thick Italian accent goes a long way towards making this a tolerable distraction to people that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
