How to slate film the RIGHT way.

[dylan2pickles]

what no time code slate on Tarrantino movies?

[bballcenter7]

Christoph Waltz looks kind of pissed off with her to be honest.

[BigBagsForRent2]

Wouldnt that take the actors out of character by laughing right before they have to act?

[rudytaboooty]

@BigBagsForRent2 Maybe, but with all the stuff that goes on around them while shooting (camera, boom mic, etc..), they are probably used to it.

[hyfyv]

love her voice and accent

[TheSOlmos]

its cool how you get to see the the actors in character as they are preparing to start film.... :/

[locopyro13]

Filmed over 5 months? Yikes

[Will19058220]

This was inspiring; somebody with a job that could easily be dismissed putting a little personality, flair and humor into her work makes the world a slightly better place.

[CBMaster2]

Took me 1 minute to realize what was going on

[stubertos]

@CBMaster2 i still dont get it,..



[l0gically]

I never noticed this before, but it looks like the scene is already in action, and the mark ("click"?) just tells the editor where the scene/shot is supposed to start?

[nhoovervideo]

@l0gically it's used to help sync audio mainly. also the scene tells where it's supposed to lie in sequence.

[CheddaBits]

@l0gically In professional movie making the sound is separate from the video (not like a home video camera where the camera handles both sound and video) That click shows up prominently in video/sound editing software, which makes it a lot easier to match the audio with the video. :)

I want to date this women.... i need her sharp humor and wit in my life....

[csmakio]

god damn that was great. perfect film for such a compilation as well.

[TheDepreso]

If you've seen the film you've probably noticed how many scenes were actually cut out, half of this video are glimpses of those scenes.

[HEXAPILOTS]

what does the letter after the scene Number mean? Like scene 39FE - okay, scene 39, but what does the Fe mean?

[UsefulClips]

@HEXAPILOTS Typically a scene is shot from several different angles to capture the various performances. The master shot might be "Scene 39A", the close up of the protagonist "39B", the reverse of that showing the reaction of another actor "39C" and on and on. Typically the letters "I" and "O" aren't used. Run out of letters?  No problem, just start using double letters.

[HEXAPILOTS]

@UsefulClips thanks!

[plugas2k]

@HEXAPILOTS 11G = 11 scene G - ginios, she shouts the word ant the first letter of the word is written along side of the scene number. 39DB means 39 Duchbag :DD 48K - kinopremiere

@tuestday Yeah specially when you're laid out like a rock and being hammered. Get it... slate.

[codemonkeybrains]

Just think, that's actually her JOB. Also, is it just me or do her jokes seem to kind of irritate the actors?

[OriginallyMyGroup]

I love her voice.

[TrevJ91]

Of course this happens on a Tarantino set.

[LOTRzagorath]

What does "Slate" mean? Why would a production have more than one slate and what's the significance of them?

[Cdmagee]

@LOTRzagorath

From what I learned in school, (I'm a post--sound guy so I may get this a bit wrong) a slate is 2 things.

1) The physical clapper board with the Scene/take/Roll info is called a SLATE.

2) Slates have different formats in different countries. I can't remember if its the European or the American version but instead of SCENE they use SLATE.

So the first shot you do would be ROLL 1 SLATE 1 TAKE 1

Than every time you change the shot, it would become SLATE 2, 3, 4 and so on.

[LOTRzagorath]

@Cdmagee It was point two that I was interested in.

The thing is, I've seen both Scene and Slate separately on the same physical slate/clapperboard. It seems to me that they would then be using two or more slates/clapperboards, unless I'm mistaken...

[Cdmagee]

@LOTRzagorath

The only reason to use 2 different clappers would be for a multi-camera shoot (I think).

If scene and slate are on the same clapper, than I think its because you are shooting the same scene, but your changing the camera set up. IE: A conversation with over the shoulder shots. You wouldn't change the Scene # because its the scene of the movie, but its a different camera set up so you change the slate the number.

[LOTRzagorath]

@Cdmagee Ah OK, that makes sense. Thanks!

[TomasCimma]

Thank you :)

[TomasCimma]

Thank you very much :) so when I'm using a camera with an HDD, should I leave the roll number '1' ?

[UsefulClips]

@TomasCimma What you might do on a project like that is have your roll number be associated with each time you download the data off the HDD.

[TomasCimma]

I was always wondering... what does the ROLL mean? The number and the letter? What is it?

[UsefulClips]

@TomasCimma "Roll" refers to a serial number the production company is giving to physical media; film, video tape or memory storage device. A typical 35mm film roll last seven minutes so for a feature length film it's not uncommon to use hundreds of them. Different production companies might have different schemes for identifying each roll of film used. For instance, "A207" might mean that roll of film was used in the "A" camera and it's the 207th roll of film used by the production.

@UsefulClips the game is to be sold not told
