Solid. Kramers method is pretty unpredictable, even though it's an intuitive way to rotoscope. Short conclusion, I like to have full control over my rotoscoping;)
@StormKat30 It kind of DOES have to do with the grip..I do sword fighting in 3 different Martial Arts, it's more or less my life. There is no universal perfect grip, but it does matter. Yes, skill is a huge part, but certain moves require certain holds, and if you hold wrong, you execute the move wrong, more than likely ending the fight for you, because a REAL fight would last little longer than like 10 seconds, especially between 2 masters.
@77Krugg77 Well, you're right. I should have put in the Reply: it depends on what style you practice. "All" styles are not like that, it depends on the ones you choose. I practice an array of Chinese sword fighting and I practice Samurai.
The grips on those are far different from each other.
@StormKat30 And for "Samurai" fighting, as you put it, the grip is one of the biggest parts. You have to hold far top and far bottom, so you could do the push/pull technique to get power. One of the biggest things th eKatana was known for, power, the ability to slice through other swords. Unless of course you use a Wakasashi with a Katana, then your style changes.
Actually I would have to disagree with you on that one Kaze. No offense, I am 30 years old, and have been highly involved in sword fighting since the age of 6.
Ryan holds the grip correctly, you're supposed to hold the grip like that or the blade won't perform correctly.
Its good when you have experience in martial arts when doing lightsaber duels. I do martial arts and I love wacthing Ryan Weiber, but a lot iof his moves would have you defeated in a Kendo/Kenjutsu match.
Lightsaber combat and Kendo are very different. Lightsaber combat makes the participants look cool while Kendo trains you to kill people with a sword.
He is skilled, no doubt about that. But 90% of his moves can´t be used in a real Kenjutsu because you don´t have the right grip to hold the sword when you swing it like he does. You would be disarmed in no time. This is just show, but a good one! I absolutely like his movies!
the moves between 0:15 and 0:20 are imposible. I download it and watch it in slow motion. your wrist must be sprained to do that third spin. this is insane
Start spinning the blade in fron of you, than use the weight and momentum of the blade to steer it like Ryan does here. You have to keep a loose grip, only pressing between your tumb and inner index finger. If you try to do this with a hard grip, you will hurt your wrist.
no it isn't impossible. you just have to do it with a lose grip by only pressing with your index and thumb. don't try with a hard grip or you probably will brake your wrist! :)
Ok, people, let me make this clear, once and for all. (For 'I have already said this before in the comments).
This is Ryan Wieber, not me, and he is not trying to set a new world record in blade spinning, nor am I trying tomake it look like that. He was testing out his new camera, and I needed some raw footage for my rotoscoping practise.
I do appreciate the positivity in the comments, though;).

u must read this. once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to copy and paste to be saved Did this lol
the twirling from 0:15 to 0:20 is pretty simple, he just did it quickly and alot of times. it would b even better if he did the same twirling but using his fingers instead of his wrists
What I meant is that these tricks are easy and he was just testing the new camera for the shooting of RvD2. I'm not saying that's slow. Just not too fast. The high Shutter Angle helps it sell.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Not to sound rude, cocky, or anything like that, but all those movements are completely unrealistic, and would never work in a real fight. No lightsaber fight would take five minutes. Hell, it would be over in a few seconds, actually.
what? You think you're an expert or something? Besides these are just entertainment vids...they're not supposed to represent how to fight or how "realistic" it's supposed to be. They're just keeping true to the fantasy that is Star Wars :)
Well being someone who's been in some sword fights in the past, (never to the death, just sparing), I can safely say that it's possible to have a fight last more that five minutes with some bad ass moves, provided that the two people know what they're doing.
Also, the whole point of the spinning is to gain momentum for strikes... Helps the blows be more powerful.
is that the blade of a light saber has no weight so its nothing like traditional sword fighting, all the weight is in hilt of the blade and even the spins and power strikes, dont convey weight. The only time a strike can knock someone back, is if it is accompanied by an outpouring of force power like anakin does when hes mad.
The beauty of these duels its all grace and skill, the purpose of the speed and complexity, is to land hits,not be powerful
To be fair, most sabers in the star wars universe magnetically simulate weight for the blade. It is a feature that can be customized or turned off, but it is there.
tell that to the people who study tai chi and kung fu. a lot of those moves he uses are based off of their movements, and are exactly what they do. so tell the master's that and see what that gets you.
That's right. The reason I made it red in this one, was because the current versions already out here used a blue saber, so I decided to "personalize" it with a red saber. Sue me!:P

The loose grip allows more flexibility and stability.
I've seen all kinds of sword fights and when it comes to swordplay. It has nothing to do with how you hold the grip. It has to do with skill.
About 100% of his moves CAN be used in a real sword fight. It all has to do with skill and years of practice.
