The Bride snares one of Hanzo’s signature blades and begins her quest for vengeance with Vipers O-Ren Ishii (Lucy Liu) and Vernita Green (Vivica A. She heads to Japan to connect with sword-maker Hattori Hanzo (Sonny Chiba), also a former tutor of ringmaster Bill (David Carradine). Formerly a member of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, her old compatriots went after her, so she decides to go back after them. She lays comatose for four years but finally snaps out of it and immediately goes on a mission of revenge against those who attacked her. Only The Bride (Uma Thurman) narrowly survives, though her unborn baby dies. Instead, I’d prefer to summarize the tale in a general way. I won’t simply detail the film in the way it progresses. Like Tarantino’s other films, he tells Bill in a typically non-linear fashion. On its own, Volume 1 provides a distinctive and interesting flick, but not one that seems wholly satisfying. Was Kill Bill worth the wait? I also don’t know, for I don’t want to judge until I see the conclusion of the series. Will we need to wait until 2010 for the next Tarantino offering? I don’t know. At least it didn’t take long for Tarantino’s next release, as Volume 2 hit the screens only about six months after the first iteration. The fall of 2003 saw his first flick in almost six years via Kill Bill Volume 1. It was like they battled for the title as the new Terrence Malick. Both put out movies at the end of 1997 and then took forever to produce follow-up flicks.

I go through the folder again (immediately)looking at the frames on large preview and try and remove frames that replicate a certain lighting style or framing. I’m then left with usually around 80-100 really interesting frames. I view all the frames as a slideshow and I remove any frame that there are doubles of (someone might be blinking in first frame and normal in second) or remove any that seem less interesting this time around.Ĥ.
So the next step is to edit, usually there might be a week or 2 between the first grab and this edit stage. This usually leaves me with around 200-250 frames per film. Depending on mood I could spend a few hours just doing the grabbingģ. I watch through the movies on VLC, usually between 3x and 4x speed while listening to podcasts, grabbing any frame that interests me. i try to keep a mix of styles.genres/directors and DP’s so I dont get bored while working.Ģ.
