Yes, I know the description is cheesy. That's the point! Please click on the higher quality link for better viewing.

**Notes about the video**
We spent about 1 month practicing, 1 day to shoot, and about 2 weeks to edit everything together. This is quite possibly one of our best video yet, but sadly, it will be our first and only lightsaber video. To be honest, the editing process was horrifying!

What you see here are my friends performing at about 70% of their actual speed. I'm am very glad I didn't ask them to go any faster, otherwise, Barb and I would not have been able to see the "sabers" to add the effect. Then again, we barely saw them as it is (¬_¬).

Our props for the video were our practice weapons, the bamboo swords with duct/electric tape on the handles. We used these because my friends kept breaking the toy props due to their speed and power (^_^).

Styles portrayed in the video are influenced by Eastern swordsmanship. I was going for a realistic fantasy routine since real sword fights only last about 30secs. Bryan is using his weapon like a Chinese straight sword with some broadsword influence (his background), and Barbara was originally shown a Japanese style of swordplay, but her background in Gumdo gave the fight a nice Korean zest to the mix.

Programs used to make the video was Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects. If you want to learn how to do the lightsaber effects, visit this link. I used this site as a reference. http://rhys-works.com/tutorials/lightsaber/

Sammo Hung is pretty fat, yet he's able to surprise everyone with his acrobatic flips, jumps, and speed.

well your practice shows. your face acting could have been better, but it's still good. The choregraphy though... it's awesome
