It started as a little fun with my wife's smartphone cam and night sabering the other day and actually I was surprised how easily these trinkets can record in pitch black without loosing focus. (My old full HD camcorder has no chance...) So I though why not extend the plot and I ended up in this short video - enjoy!

Hello medwyn,
That video was beautifully crafted. Even though I am a relative beginner in the Saber arts I could see how each form represented it's Element. Moving.
Kind regards,
For Tyeth

Very nice! Great trailer that captures the essence of each form. We've been using an iPhone 6 for most of our projects. Works great in low light.

Ah, that warm summer night! Now it's as cold as it was warm back then. Just wondering if I should revise this little clip one day and insert a few seconds of Entropy form too which has born later than this vid...

I say go for it. You've inspired me to go back through my MHQ Shaolin forms now that my hip ( after years and years of Physical therapy.. ) is operating at 80% or so. I might use your videos as a reference for some of my club members and EMA students that have an interest in forms training. We are a drill format academy. I enjoy both method immensely.

...I don't know how I missed this one as I've been a fan of all of Med's "Elements" series but I was glad to see it up!
Wonderful Master Medwyn!
Point!

How about an application to Knighthood! You inspired me to go back and revisit my forms training from MeiHuaQuan. The last 12 years or so all I've done is gear everything towards Free Flow/Muscle Memory. Going back and working a " Mindset " is exactly what I needed to get out of the Box again. Always finding myself trapped by a technique that eventually leads to one of my fellow instructors knowing what im going to do before I do it. On a side note, the J.o.E. LSC ( Go Joe! ) has been arguing over how to train Form Vll for a couple years now. I finally convinced them that the Mindset approach is the best. Using Pure emotion. The easy one for me, which you'll see in this video, is Rage. One of my nicknames is " Joyous Rage "..getting off track. We came up with s quote for our Form Vll Club Specialist. You can be calm, but Aggressive. You can be Full of Rage, but Passive. You can be Nothing. Be one with the Force. Hope you enjoy! This one is much longer than I normally post. P.S. - Seriously Master Medwyn , I want in. :: Respectful Bow ::

P.S. - Seriously Master Medwyn , I want in. :: Respectful Bow :: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zai_KvbTrEc&t=29sThat's a splendid and very inspiring Battle Meditation, Ryan, thank you very much for sharing! It resonates well with the Form of the Spirit we have in the Knighthood and as unique as it can be by your exceptionally wide range of skills and discipline. I'm happy to welcome you in the Distant Earth Knighthood as "Ambassador of Form VII", hope you'll find our materials and way of thinking helpful for your further venturing into the Force!

Much appreciated Master Medwyn. And thank you for letting me into the Knights! I am working on 3 additional videos for Form Vll. Hoping my hip hangs in there long enough to add Acrobatics in the next set.
My next mission. Training the Elements!
