Black Belt Demonstrating Uki Waza Throw — Clip Details

TOKYO JAPAN-1971: Two men in white karate gi practice a technique on a simple mat. One man wears a black belt, indicating higher rank, while the other wears a white belt. They begin in a formal stance, then engage in a close grappling move, demonstrating a Uki Waza throw. The footage is shot on 8mm film, showing characteristic grain and a slightly soft focus, capturing a candid moment of martial arts training from the early 1970s.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Useful for 1970s documentary or educational edits needing archival footage of martial arts instruction in Tokyo on original 8mm film.
Period detail: The white gi, belt ranks, simple mat surface, and handwritten Uki Waza title may show a formal martial arts demonstration setting from the early 1970s.
Home-movie behavior: The value is in the plain observational view of two adult practitioners moving through a technique without staged production polish.
What appears in frame: Visible elements include two men in gi, black and white belts, a mat floor, a plain wall, close grappling positions, and handwritten technique text.
Film character: The scan carries 8mm grain, soft focus, high contrast, edge darkening, and contact-sheet framing that give it clear physical-film texture.
Edit role: An editor could use this as a short insert, cutaway, or instructional memory beat within a sequence about martial arts practice or recreation.
Historical context: The clip visually documents structured martial arts training and rank distinction without supporting broader claims about a school or event.
Research note: Two adult faces are visible, so likeness review may be needed separately from any copyright or footage licensing assessment.
Research search match: Likely search matches include 1971 Tokyo martial arts lesson, 8mm karate demonstration, Uki Waza practice, and vintage Japanese sports training.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with adjacent same-reel training shots, then other Tokyo 1971 material, then broader 1970s martial arts or recreation footage.
