Hey guys, I've been wanting to film a lightsaber duel for fun for a long time. Anyone interested in this?
Where are you? Sadly Im in SA, but hey, @Corellian_Outrider is in teh right business, and know those you need for this I've done this before, but it is against the law...apparently.
Hi @Psychadelicsith, what type of filming project are you planning? Is it for a fan film or just a duel sequence?
I'm in the area as well, but have extremely poor fighting skills @Adalia-Durron it's against the law?!
Yeah, we were doing it here and the police actually stopped us saying we were using dangerous weapons without the appropriate safety precautions. Seriously, we were hitting each other with sticks...and yeah, it hurt. But we were told to cease and desist or we'd be charged with wielding a dangerous weapon..
Lightsabers are dangerous in the hands of those that are untrained in wielding such a device after all... but still...
Yeah, and Lightsabers are real and all.....MRs are real, but hey, I could bash my husband with a broom stick and get the same result!!!
There in a new group in Sydney called the Sydney Saber Arena. Originally based on Mediaeval reenactment combat techniques, we are now supplementing our training in line with Bujinkan (Ninja) martial arts sword training, with a mix of freestyle combat and choreograph elements. If interested, please follow the above link to our Facebook page and request membership for more information.
Sorry for the late reply. It was going to be a fan film but my friend has pulled out and he is the expert on film
