their footing wasn't even close to correct either, but this is meant strictly for simple entertainment. if you have a complaint i suggest that you message the creator of the film.

I'm a modern sport fencer. As entertainment, this is a far cry better than the average swordsmanship. My advice to the makers is this: From my perspective, less is more in blocking swordfights. Look at the difference between pirates of the carribbean (clang clink jump and nobody's ever gonna get stabbed) as opposed to the end of Rob Roy or the Duellists (careful consideration, economy of motion, etc). People who have experience with swordplay appreciate the latter much more

Great, fast-paced movie swordfight, be proud of yourselves!
Ignore darkcolmar and comments... William Wilson's "Arte of Defense" is just about as far away as you can possibly get from rapier combat. Of the 20+ books and manuscripts on historical rapier combat that I have, Wilson's book is the one that sits gathering the most dust.

I'll reiterate: This was shot in only a few hours and we had very limited knowledge of sword work, foot work, etc... As for being "not really professional", our Reel Kick 2010 reel seems pretty professional to me!
