Satya Bellord

Here's some interesting stuff on Satya Bellord, the star of Karma Kula's 2nd chapter, "Frog in the Well" :



Think "stunt double" and "martial arts double" are the same thing?

Not always. Satya Bellord (pictured above in a blond wig on the left, and with Quentin Tarantino on the right) got called on last minute to be a Martial Arts Double for Uma Thurman in Kill Bill Vol. 2.

What's the difference?

Satya explains: "The martial arts double specializes in martial arts, especially moves that require a higher skill and energy level. A trained martial artist develops an inner strength that isn't there in an actor or stunt person whose martial arts training is limited."

She is also credited as "Utility Stunts" in some sources. She was interviewed in Black Belt Magazine for her work on the film.

Frog in the Well

Frog in the Well , Karma kula's 2nd chapter, is out!

I must say, I loved this chapter. It's got action, wit, suspense, and humor. What more to ask for?

I've been traveling heaps for the past few days. I'm just exhausted tonight, and glad to be parked somewhere even just for a few days. I'm just wanting to get some sleep more than anything else.

I visited some relatives and such over the holidays and drove my mom and aunts around. They had a great time I'd think, so all seems to be quite well. It was nice to spend some time with my cousins again.
