G'day All I’ve seen a few members inquiring about stage combat courses. There seems to be a genuine interest in violence on stage/film :) And why not!!! It is a fantastic skill to have and always looks good on a CV. My question is then…what is the genuine feel out there if a school was created to teach people stage combat??? I’ve been doing martial arts for over 7 years and my brother and I are both professional Choreographers. We are currently doing martial arts scenes for an animation that, if all goes well, will be show and sold to Hollywood. We are also currently helping out for an amateur dramatics stage play where we will be teaching people how to fight with a scythe (Death’s weapon). Ultimately it is always easier when people have had training in martial arts but I just want to get a feel for what people think… Let me know…Oh and don’t forget to smile :) David Green DRAGON FILMS

I posted my original comment 11 hours ago and look at the response!!! :) Brillent Anyway Im thanking everyone for their comments and views and invite anyone else to please let me know what they think. And Andy thank you for giving me some more information about what goes into Stage Combat. Although yes I am just starting out in this field compared to you...but I am also an actor/director and I work on what the clients want. They usually give me a brief outline and then I create with my brother what we invision. IT eventually comes down to what the director wants and what we got to work with. Im not claiming to be the best or most experienced...I was just wondering what people would think...and if anyone needs a choreographer Im here to help. Thanks again to everyone David Green DRAGON FILMS
