You have no idea how happy I am that you recognized another kubrick enjoyer.
I pause scenes, skipping frame by frame during intense scenes. Sometimes, especially in the most intense scenes I draw the gesture of every frame as fast as I can, and other times I pick my favorite one and draw it a little more carefully. There are some apps that let you do this, what I use is the precise frame mpv video player and I downloaded the movie using yar-har-har methods.
I think Kubrick's films are absolutely perfect for using as a reference because the guy is literally insane. Every single detail in the movie, from the composition of the backgrounds to the actor's expressions and motions and the clothing design is all part of his artistic vision so no matter what you're copying, you can always absorb a bit of his greatness. The actors have all said that he was crazy (poor shelley). When I scrub through the frames I like to think that I come across a glimpse, just for a fraction of a second, of exhaustion or even genuine terror in the actor's eyes that's not supposed to be there, like "goddammit stanley this is the 500th take" or "what's this mother fucker gonna make me do next" and then that look disappears in the next frame.
This is a frame by frame gestural btw.
