I've done some tutorials and Skype sessions with some forum members here and there, but I always feel awkward talking to a camera without anyone there.  If there's a demand for it, I might could do a series of videos showing some stuff.  I tend to feel better speakers like Venturous and DC have covered it though.
Think about it this way: the only people who will see you "talking to the nobody of a camera" will be watching the video, and then you're talking to them.

Personally some tips or training vids on more advanced topics might help people.  Things like movements with the saber, hand switches, tosses, my favorite the finger roll stuff, things like that.  Getting the basic and even intermediate spins down really sets you up to get a little stuck when trying to really put together a nice 90 second or two minute performance. 

Some of the usual guys do cover some of this stuff but as I said, different perspective and teaching methods can help more people.

So... how about a video on moving with the saber or your take on it? Smiley

Hey everyone, looking good  Smiley
I haven't posted a video in quite a while, and wanted to show off my customized grandmaster/arbiter mashup saber. With diamond controller for cool fx  Wink

Awesome!  I'm wanting to do a build with that arbiter piece for a long handle saber too at some point.  Nice moved too!

So here's the trick I'm working on right now.  I think I've got enough of it to show you all.

I have recorded a video response to post for you btw, but my tablet isn't cooperating.  It'll have to go up after I finish cooking.

Ignored the swing sound being off. Working on changing it but have to replace something first in order to do so

So the video I recorded didn’t upload correctly.  YouTube’s giving me a fit about it.   I may have to shorten it or do it again.  Just a heads up that I don’t know if I’ll be able to get that out to you guys.

Also, looking good Infinite, glad to see you’re at it again.  But I don’t know that it’s Friday yet lol.

Didn’t want to double post so I gave this one an edit.

Nothing fancy here, just trying to keep it clean.  Hope you guys enjoy!

Looking good,

I like the 'keeping it clean and nothing fancy'. It makes the different moves stand out by themselves, and better to read.

These days I don't feel like those moves really impress people like they used to.  They expect contact rolls or throws or something ridiculous from me.  But I think my real strength is in the fundamentals and clean execution.  It's difficult to do in costume as well, but I like a challenge.

Agreed fully that the fancier stuff isnt as impressive as smoothness, nice flow, directional changes, etc.  The basics done in  a textbook fashion look better to me.  Sure, crazy throws, hilts rolling across shoulders, all that stuff are cool but seem to be more out of a circus/marching band act than what a Jedi would do. Smiley

I LOVE how you frequently stop after a movement with a nice pose.  It breaks things up nicely and feels authentic or something like that.  Stopping is an important part of real spinning, IMO.  As always, keep up the killer vids!

Looking great Sam and Infinit.
sam, I love the Angel Roll and toss. and in fact looking at oyu doing helped me realize that my issue is that I need a longer hilt... guess that means now I get to save up for a new saber.
anywho, here is a video from the end of my practice session on Thursday.

also question guys, do the catch and release moves look good or should I not waste my time?

I can angel roll the smaller ones too, if you look at DC he does it on the same hilts you have I believe.  I just favor the bigger ones.
