2010 Showreel and latest Sparring Video vs a Kickboxer

Hi Team :)

Things have been quiet lately on the film front, my wife's finally here in Auckland living with me so been spending alot of time with her lately (movies, monopoly, dates, walks, planning, jobhunting etc) but back to filming stuff late this month. In the mean time I have cut some videos for you.

2010 Showreel.

This is basically all the best bits of my actionwork in 2010 cut together into one file using windows movie maker. Also, a good reference to use against my current work to see how far I've improved :)

Latest Sparring Video

I sparred with a kickboxer who was looking at maybe joining the club, I lost a contact at the start of the fight so I didn't give 100 percent and I hadn't trained in the last week so was unfit as, so excuses aside I thought I did alright, still, as Sifu said I have to stop being nice and kill it. Next time. On a side note I have thumb-nailed a pic from the first round below, he was going to kick me and I was in mid air yet somehow my force (no gravity though) knocked him down. Thought it was pretty cool.

Have finished and handed in my definitive Film script for the end of course assignment. 12 minutes long (which was the max) and it's tentatively called 'Maria'. It's best to describe it as a cross between Drive and Unleashed with a female hit man as the main lead. The problem won't be the violence/drama/casting. It's gonna be the fake blood!! because I have written LOTS into the script. Though I have still got to wait and see if it gets approved first. Will keep you posted ;) Until next post, smell the roses, enjoy life and chase your own dreams :P

Make your magic :)

Everyone's A Loser When It Comes To Love - Now on youtube!

Below are the links to both the Uncut version of the short film and the Out takes/Making of the film. Hope you enjoy them, My first attempt at directing anything with serious drama and not the comical stuff I have done in the past, Also my first scene I've choreographed and Directed without actually being part of the action, It was different being on the other side of the camera, but I learned from the experience. Anyway please watch the films and leave a comment on the channel for what you would like to see more or less of and then I'll take it from there :)

Making of and Bloopers of Everyone's a Loser When It comes to Love.

Also below is the show-reel of the Lead actor in this production, Lee Ah Yen, As you can see he has a very strong screen presence in his work and I'm sure the world will see more of him soon :)
