The Tarantino Shot

by Jared Wade on May 13, 2010 · 0 comments

You have to imagine this recurring camera shot is sort of a Hitchcock-doing-the-Where’s-Waldo-thing type of signature for Quentin Tarantino. Then again, he’s so high most of the time it probably could just be something he thinks he’s doing for the first time every movie.

Quentin: “I had this amazing idea for a shot last night.”
DP: “The trunk thing?”
Quentin: “No. We put the camera in the trunk of a car and then shoot the characters talking.”
DP: “Like in Reservior Dogs?”
Quention: “Reservior who? Either way … It’s going to be great.”

And … scene. Literally. (Image via Skull Swap)
