WHERE ARE YOU IN YOUR JOURNEY?

“Every time I try to shoot a fight it always ends up looking flat and amateur.”

“I feel like I’m going to waste people’s time or money trying to shoot action because I don’t know what I’m doing.”

“I have no idea what shots to get or what looks good.”

“I don’t know where to put the camera to make things look real.”

“My fight scenes always look cookie cutter and basic. They don’t stand out and look like everything else.”

“I’m scared to even attempt an action scene because I know I’ll screw it up.”

“I can choreograph cool moves but once the camera comes on I’m lost.”

“I get nervous when it comes to directing performers and stunt people.”

“Honestly, I don’t even know where to start”
MOST CREATORS ARE TRYING TO SHOOT FIGHT SCENES WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT THE
SCENE IS ACTUALLY ABOUT
TWO TRAPS
TRAP ONE
CHOREOGRAPHY FIRST
THINKING
They jump right in to… “What is the coolest sequence of choreography I could possibly come up with?”

They spend all of their energy designing punches and kicks and combos but never ask the most important question…
WHO IS THE CHARACTER
AND WHAT ARE THEY FIGHTING FOR
Of course we’re gonna learn how to shoot fights.

But to shoot compelling fights, this has to be the foundation.

As a martial arts nerd it pains me to say this… but audiences don’t care about choreography.

We’re choreographing for audiences – not other martial arts nerds.
And audiences connect through character and story.

When you start with character:
  • Who they are
  • How they approach the world
  • Where they are in their journey

...the choreography creates itself.

BALLERINA
BALLERINA TURNED ASSASSIN
When I was Fight Coordinating Ballerina, Eve being a ballerina defined our entire approach to her fight style.

In real life, ballerinas suffer. They dance with broken bleeding toes.
They push through pain. They endure.

So we used that. She gets beat up. She struggles beat by beat.
ME FIGHTING WITH ANA DE ARMAS IN BALLERINA
THE CHOREOGRAPHY REFLECTS HER ABILITY TO SUFFER AND ENDURE.
THE MATRIX
BELIEF BECOMES POWER
Neo’s fight scenes mirror his belief arc. Early on,
he’s hesitant and unsure, fighting with effort.

But as he begins to believe he is The One,
the choreography shifts.

He becomes more fluid, more composed
THE LAST SAMURAI
PHILOSOPHY MEETS FORM
As Algren transforms from a broken soldier to a man of honor,
his fight style evolves too.

At first, he’s all force and survival.
But as he adopts samurai philosophy, his movements become more measured
MOST PEOPLE NEVER THINK THIS DEEPLY ABOUT CHARACTER
IN FIGHT LAB – WE’LL BREAK DOWN FIGHTS LIKE A DIRECTOR:

• Craft fights that tell a story
• Make choreography feel like discovery – not random
• Create contrast and escalation that create emotional arcs
TRAP TWO – THINKING IN SHOTS, NOT SEQUENCES
MOST CREATORS
• Look at a piece of choreography
• Make sure the punches sell
• Find a cool angle
• Shoot it
• Move on
This results in camera work that doesn’t feel like design.
It feels like coverage.
IT FEELS SCATTERED. DISJOINTED. NOT CINEMATIC.
HOW CINEMATIC FIGHTS ARE BUILT
WHEN YOU THINK IN SEQUENCES
• You’re planning:
• Multiple shots
• Their purpose
• How they fit together
• Before you ever press record
• Doing it this way forces us to ask:
What is this shot about?
What character, story beat, or emotion am I conveying?
How can the camera reinforce that?
BUT THIS ISN’T JUST THEORY
INSIDE FIGHT LAB
WE GO BEYOND IDEAS – WE’LL SHOW YOU HOW TO SHOOT DIRECT AND EDIT CINEMATIC FIGHTS
• Design shots that feel cinematic – not just coverage
• Use camera movement with purpose, not randomly
• Pick focal lengths, angles, and framing that heighten impact
• Build your sequences before you ever press record: like a director
