dinesh-What a great site!!!
That was nicely, and clearly explained.
That’s very helpful, thanks guy’s.
But that’s only the basic.
Can you show us how to make more advanced fight scence, as been shown on some pro movies, such as: Jason Bourne movies series, the last James Bond movies and et cetera?
I know that you must have a scene chereographer for that one.
Well, we do and we are more advanced guy’s who want to know a little bit further.
so if it’s possible, i’ll be grateful.
Some things to look at for advanced tricks include using the compression of telephoto lenses to trick the closeness of the impacts. Do some investigation into telephoto lens compression.
Also, lighting plays a key role, having fighters move in and out of pools of light can increase the perceived movement and emotional intensity. Shadow- and the unknown can also help in this.
In general it is hard to light for large action sequences, which is why this video didn’t even try to hid the lights for their mock scene.
