Do you
want to make the best looking sword/stunt fights you've ever seen? Do you want to learn how the BIG stunt coordinators choreograph their killer sword fights while keeping everyone safe? Do you have a stage production that has some sword play, and you have no idea how to do it safely and yet make the audience sit on the edge of their seats? Do you want that "Hollywood" look without having to hire a Hollywood team or move to Los Angeles? Look no further.
You've seen instructional videos on sword fighting, but they are always produced by people who have never made a movie or even been on a professional set. When you use their instruction, don't your scenes look sloppy or the kills or hits look staged? There is a reason why people come to Hollywood to make great movies: the best and most experienced people work there. Enter Alina Andrei and Mark Edward Lewis. Camera angles, striking distance, body position, creative choreography...all of these factors are what separates a Hollywood production from a backyard YouTube video. YouTube is about to get rocked!
Alina Andrei and Mark Edward Lewis teach you how to be the sword choreography master that you've been dreaming of. Alina and Mark are two award winning Hollywood professionals who have produced, directed, and performed stunt work in over 40 television and film productions. They bring their mastery of the art of stunt sword play to you. For the first time, you can have your fights look like the professionals and let your dream of doing "The Matrix" style sword fights begin to come to life creatively and safely. This is no DVD series for people who want to learn "real" sword fighting. Authentic sword play looks terrible on screen. This video will get your fight productions noticed, because it will show you how to make fights look great no matter what weapons or genre. Whether Claymores or Lightsabers, this DVD series is for you. If you don't discover that Super Swordfighting Series DVDs aren't the best education tools you've seen for sword play on camera or stage, just return them for a FULL REFUND within 30 days. Now that's a win-win for everyone! Each Super Swordfighting DVD will give you industry standard techniques for body position, parrying, striking, footwork, proper execution (so you make it look great), fantastic kills, crazy-dangerous-looking (but safe) moves and, of course, example fights that you can use in your own productions...or borrow from. In Super Swordfighting: Beginnings, Alina and Mark will show you the industry standard French numeric system that nearly every sword choreographer uses to create their fights. Using single-handed weapons, this number system will allow you to quickly and easily create a vocabulary that gets your fighters ready for performance. It also allows you to make changes in an instant and write down your fights so that you never forget them. This system includes strikes and parries that can be altered and stylized to look European, Asian, or Alien depending on the limits of your creativity. Alina and Mark will also show you the best way to move your feet so you don't look like a gimpy fencer doing your moves. They will show you the swipe to the head, how to kill an opponent in such a way that the audience cringes, and how to do all of this safely while selling it to the camera, and, of course, several pre-choreographed fights that demonstrate how all of these techniques work into a full-speed battle. This DVD is a prerequisite to all the other Super Swordfighting products. In Super Swordfighting Intermediate: Tricks and Terror, Alina and Mark will show you how to fight with two-handed broadswords and weapons. They will also show you basic and intermediate martial arts kicks and punches. There are more advanced moves, strikes, additions to the numbering system, brutal hand-to-hand moves and several fights that will keep your audience on the end of their seat. In Super Swordfighting Advanced: Multiple Weapons/Multiple Opponents, the title speaks for itself. You'll learn how to apply the French numbering system to weapons including: Rapier/Dagger, Lightsaber/Lightsaber, Cutlass/Cutlass and more. There will be more advanced moves, martial arts hand-to-hand, blistering demo fights with multiple oppenents, and an entire explanation of spacing, timing and the miracle of shooting multiple opponent action with a camera (which is far, far different than for stage). Most DVD series that give you these kinds of secrets to Hollywood movie making are well over $99 each...and that's a steal! To make action look great, most people learn by moving to Hollywood and spend thousands of dollars in lessons. Alina and Mark are offering Super Swordfighting: Beginnings for the retail price of $49.99. However, we are offering the entire Super Swordfighting set of 3 DVDs for $99.95 (a $150 value), FREE shipping (domestically) with a 30 day Money-Back Guarantee! However, supplies will be limited as the demand for these DVDs has been great. Don't miss this opportunity to make your productions look and be their greatest! Order the Super Swordfighting Series now! Oh, and please do send us copies/links of your performances when you're done. We'd love to see your work! |
