Her name is Geraldine Brezca , she is from Argentina and worked with Tarantino during 17 years , he put the nickname "Camera Angel" . Now she doing her own Works :)
i'm an editor and tbh that helps more than just saying "scene 1 take 4". it's distinct to memorize w/o even trying. like instead of scrolling through hours of footage it's easy to remember that the take you were looking for was Douche Bag Take 1
I just wanna say "F YOU", Your icon on youtube scared the shit outha me, and i feel like an IDIOT that fell for it, but i thought it was a scratch on my monitor which is completely new, you gave me a small heart attack.. the oldest trick in the book ,and it got me.. well played!
If you really think about it, feet smell like vinegar, Tarantino likes salt and vinegar chips, chips are made from potatoes and what do we have on the end of potatoes? TOES!
@Steve McQueen yes but don't forget, the last movie he made was once upon a time in Hollywood, it had a wonderful cast and it was mash up of many movies, what else is mashed? Potatoes! And in the end what do we have? Toes!
she says humiliation because the character was about to get thrown to the ground and have a swastika carved into his forehead. Also I agree that his look of contempt was definitely done in character.
Captain. She is not making up names of the scenes. She is reading the clapper board in "military" way. Instead of "B" she read Bravo, "A" - Alfa ... and so on. She is just making up funny words instead.
What's going on: The clapper is to help the editor (Hi sally). The clap is to help them synchronize audio and video, and the annotations help her identify the specific part of the raw footage. By using words to recite their letters, the letters won't be confused with similar sounding ones. Our person clapping also happens to be filling this thing with inside jokes. "Feet essential" because of Tarantino's obession with foot shots. "Genius" because Tarantino often says this after a successful take
Having done this job myself in the past, (Second Assistant Camera), I find this girl really funny. It's just unfortunate that we are in EVERY SINGLE SCENE but end up on the cutting room floor EVERY SINGLE TIME.
It's the sort of brazenness you can get away with after you have been doing the job for a long time for the same people. You have to be careful though, at times she was making the actors laugh and breaking their composure, which could really piss-off the wrong director.
A friend of mine was doing a student film in college - and I wanted the opportunity to recreate what she is doing here so I did the claps for the scenes I was in. Later in my friend said that the scenes I clapped were the easiest to edit since they were all labeled lol
I know this is a 10 year old post I am replying to, but I still think people should know this because this vidoo just popped up on my recommendations today .Her name is Geraldine Brezca, and Tarantino has used her in a ton of his movies, Starting with Jackie Brown and all the way up to Django Unchained. She started off as a Camera Loader, but the role she is filling in this clip is known as a Clapper or Clap Loader or Clapperboard Operator. She is a member of SAG and gets a credit in the films she works on. She doesn't have any credits that I can find after she directed and produced her own film in 2013, so I am not sure what happened to her.
everyone's reacting to her in character watch the way Alden Ehrenreich plays off of Sylvester Groth's reaction to "kino premiere" they're both in character there the actors are cracking their knuckles with a touch of improv before the scene begins, you know?
For people who are not familiar with the importance of the clapper: Tarantino uses real photographic and audio films in his movies, so video and audio are recorded on separate rolls. The clapper helps adjusting audio and video by syncing the claps at the beginning and the end of the take.
All major motion pictures use duel recording systems (use two different tools in recording instead of one) so that you can place microphones in specific places away from the camera for cleaner sound. For example, wireless lav mics cannot be connected to the camera for clean recording but to a dedicated sound mixer, can achieve a higher quality sound file than in camera. So that is why they use separate devices. A single system (sound goes into the camera) does work, but you won't achieve good sound. You can have a movie with rough visuals (Blair Witch Project is a good example) but I can't think of a movie that would work with a poor quality of sound.
Hr Gwea its for coverage; lets say scene 28 has two people talking. they film 28A on one person talking, then film 28B on the other person. 28C could be a shot with both of them, and so on. if your shots are really complex and have multiple parts, you might make letters for a shot that already has letters. sorry if this explanation isn’t great lol, just google “camera coverage” if you wanna learn more
Hr Gwea and also, this person adds little flares (i.e. putting the letter before the number) that are very uncommon practice. it’s always number-letter.
It’s in the script. After the lunch meeting with goebbles and shosanna and everybody, goebbles and hellstrom and landa and Fredrick and the translator and shosanna watch the Nazi propaganda movie “Lucky Kids” in Shosannas theater because goebbles wants to see if the theater is up to his standards, and during the scene Sam Jackson narrates shosannas plan to burn down the theater.
@@Numbuh10125 *were a ton of Italians (born) was probably the big community of immigration in Argentina. but now a big part of the people are descendents not natural born..
Brezca is doing more to put the actors at ease than Quentin ever could lol... @ 2:12 you can see her reading the scene box, looking at the "FFC," and getting so tickled the moment that Geraldine nails the reference. how cute is this??
I imagine a lot of people don't even know what the clipboard is for. There was a type, pre digital (which Tarantino still refuses to use), when the sound tape and the film are two different recording devices, so when you get into the editing room, the visual of the clip board combined with the snap allows you to line up the audio reel with the video reel...otherwise editing would be hell.
Christoph's face at 1:18 after she says Cigarettes is priceless and should've been the movie's promotional poster. I could definitely go see a movie directed by Tarantino that was just Christoph Walz talking to people about the most mundane topics.
I tried this gag on my first non-paying job as a camera assistant. It was 1979 during the Iranian Hostage Crisis. The slate letter for the previous scene was "h", so I followed with "I", which is bad practice. Then I announced it as "Iyatolla , in reference to the Ayatollah Khomeini, which is spelled with an "A". Also the director was Jewish. Fortunately, the director liked me and had hired me personally, and also understood I was an ignorant kid just out of school.
All the scenes where you can see the actors faces are prefixed with "A" in the Roll number. Scenes of hands or feet are "C" or "D". I didn't see any B-rolls. B's are most likely scenery shots without any actors so didn't make this cut.
More commonly it's to avoid confusion with certain scene numbers. It's not a big deal if you're shooting scene 25, for example... your shot numbers on the slate would read 25A, 25B, 25C and so on. But when you have script rewrites, it's very common to have scenes numbered 24, 25, 25A, 25B, 26, 26A, 27, etc... which would make the numbers on the slate potentially confusing. So scene 25A would be written as A25 on the slate, allowing you to use your shot numbering as usual.
Look at the "Kino-Premiere" scene. I think at the point of clapping the actors are already in character and use it to start the scene. Brad Pitt laughs at her joke but he does it in a southern accent.
She's so great! I've done 2nd cam, pullng and all that shit...we're always afraid of pissing off the actors and pulling them outta their character...I guess it's different with Tarantino...Fantastic...! he he he...
some people say this girl is the reason to movie named "basterds" not "bastards" because she always says it wrong before the scenes and tarantino liked it

Hes staying in character
she says humiliation because the character was about to get thrown to the ground and have a swastika carved into his forehead. Also I agree that his look of contempt was definitely done in character.
Notice how fantastically Waltz continues to hold on to the character, and reacts the same way his character would react!
I could just watch a movie entirely made up of Christoph Waltz reacting to this woman making up scene names.
I could watch a movie with Mr. Waltz just eating pies! Or strudel! He's brilliant.
Such impeccable comedic timing on those shots. I agree.

Sure but, for a director, it's not that fun
They joke like this because directing a film is mostly an incredibly hard job.
E and E entertainment, if directing isn't fun for you, then you should probably find something that's suits you better, cause Tarantino loves his job.
