Streetfighter: Ryu vs Fei long - Week 1 and 2 Recap

VS
Streetfighter: Ryu vs Fei-long is my new short film project in the works. We are aiming for a late August Shoot. Lee Ah yen will be playing Ryu and I will be playing Fei Long.
I had written maybe 4 different scripts, some involving a cross with Jin in tekken, Chun Li and Jann Lee (Which is from a dead or alive pitch i had been planning to do later this year once i find the right actresses to play Hitomi and Lei Fang), One script with Ryu vs Sagat and One script with Ryu taking on Guile in a warehouse. It was quite hard to find actors to match the physiques of some of these characters so i decided we would shoot a film first to show prospective actors/actresses what the finished idea looks like and hopefully we can do maybe a web series of Streetfighter like Mortal Combat (and i don't mean the SF series College humor did either, i mean serious action not comedy).

I know of 2 very well made and received Fan Films of Streetfighter (Legacy and beginnings end respectively) And though i will be nowhere near their equivalent regarding equipment, cast or budget (read; no budget :P) Our enthusiasm for Streetfighter as well as the choreography and script i have written should win us some fans and maybe some name recogniton for future works, original or made for fans.

So Its been a week since Lee has agreed to the script and since Lee and I have decided a rough shooting date I spent yesterday shooting myself as both characters (not in costume though) doing some test choreography for the SF project in order to test after effects effects regarding Hadokens and hits and Powered moves. However all the footage is uploaded on the school computer so i wont be able to share with you guys the results for a couple weeks as i cut it up and add the effects, in the blog that follows i will go over the project.

Anyways thats the news. This past week i have been editing Everyones a Loser When It Comes to Love and TigerXCobra as well as our school project with flying cars aka Michael Bay haha. Always editing, now if i had final cut at home these would be long finished by now but i don't, so don't expect Ivy Investigation for a wee while yet.

In other news got to spar again on Wednesday, however the safety equipment is quite restricitve in terms of ducking and eyesight, i got hit by so many punches simply because i couldn't use my peripheral version, but in good news we were allowed to do front or sidekicks which is my middlename! so as you can see in the video of the spar that Chris uploaded i exploit that, hope to do more combos and punching overall next time out, i was far too passive in this one and quite disappointed in myself. Anyway, Christchurch next weekend, I'll blog again then :) Have a good week.
Coming Soon :)
