Thanks to Paramount for sponsoring this video! Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins is on Digital Today: https://paramnt.us/SnakeEyesCC . Join Ilya and Matt as they have a discussion about the Katana and why it is that we are so fascinated with this sword. Ilya dives deep into the origin of the Katana as well as why it is sacred to the people of an entire nation. The Japanese Katana is much more then a weapon. It is said to be the soul of entire nation and has been that way for thousands of years. We dive into why it is important to study the Katana in order to understand swords from other cultures and how they were made. We also talk about the challenges to incorporating an ancient and sacred item into modern film. This is a long deep conversation that covers many things that Ilya has wanted to say about the Katana and we will use this video as reference for years to come so be prepared for us to link to this with time codes quite often! Ilya also gives us a step by step of how to make a katana and all that goes into the preparation and execution of such a timeless procedure.
