That's actually what a lot of action scenes are missing today. The pauses here helped to pace the fight better and as a result, the scene was much easier to follow.
Story and beat structure are outlined first, then the rest of the fight is choreographed on the fly, shot by shot. We rehearse a shot of choreography 10 to 20 times, shoot 5-10 takes until we get it, then move on.
Eric, as someone who has only recently started to get into the stunt world, I have to say that you are a huge inspiration. Every time I see one of your videos, I re-play them over and over just to study your choreographies, movements, reactions...it's a gold mine. Thank you for such high quality material, and also thank you for your tutorials! It's interesting to me how you choreograph the fight on the fly....this whole time I thought the whole thing had to be ready before you started rehearsing. Huh...
Wooo the way this fight ended felt so raw and real. Even though no words were exchanged there was communication in the body language. BRAVO to your art!
White guy: Myung Jae Nam Hapkido
Asian guy: Gasho-Ryu Karate

This is hands down my favorite Stunt People short
Very good gentlemen. good power in the movements hard solid blocks.. looks real and I like the arm locks escapes..
hey we tried!
I actually got to do that after doing this vid! Got to choreograph and pre-viz a fight for Die Hard 5. When it comes out we'll see if my choreography got used. Keep an eye out for a knife fight.
Die Hard 5 knife fight did not make it into the film. This is why I like doing indie stuff.
And it just ends like that? Brilliant! That was amazing!
Bourne music~ ~Awesome!!
Only choreographed one fight and no I didn't get to meet him. But it was fun nonetheless. Hope the fight makes it in, there's a knife involved.
Hey that was way better than most real fights even alot of the mma fights and alot more exciting lol.
I like how he counter that throw using the wall.
BEST FIGHT EVER ERIC
That was....AAAWESOOOME!!!!GREAT!!GREAT!!GREAT!!!
OMG! I thought it was a fight scene with Colin Farrell In it! Good job guys!
It better make it in! You can't deny the Stunt people's work! Can't wait! thanks for replying so quickly! More Hollywood movies should hire you!
Gentlemen, this is one of the best things you' ve done by far, and i watch you for five years. Absolutely stunning,
Excellent fight! Loved the kicks!
Go fast
Astonishing as always. As expected from the stunt people.
Excellent. There is no doubt the people who watched this video rewinded a few times at some really great parts. Very good work ! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Damn good. Better than any fight seen in a US movie in a decade
I know you posted this content 8 years ago and probably you wont see this comment but I gotta tell you I just discovered your channel and I'm addicted to it Eric! Keep them coming bro! Love from Malaysia ✌
This is better than any "hollywood" fight scene i've ever seen! keep up the great work guys!!! hope to see more!
This only has 14k subs? Wait PewdiePie, has 24 MILLION.....and this only has 14k? This world confuses me, anyway, subbed.
There just aren't many people in the world with good taste.
***** Well you guys just keep doing what you do, I look forward to seeing more of this grade A stuff from you, keep on keepin on. You are awesome.
*****
i love pewds. but i just didnt know about ur channel :)
I love pewds too, guilty pleasure ;)
***** I don't like him personally, but you can't argue against his success, he is apparently doing something right, but the stuff you and all these guys do is even more awesome, and I don't understand how you don't have a larger audience.......thus is the internet I suppose.....
Completely awesome in every way
Wow amazing choreography!!!
@MarioXavie thanks, though comparing ourselves to Jackie Chan gets views, and if we were to translate 10,000 views into dollars, I think that's around twelve cents or something.
plus, the ending credits was creative :DD
It is amazing that stunt-people and Shawn Bernal's group aren't doing more choreography for Hollywood. Great work.
Like the way he just walks away.......
Наконец-то я посмотрел это видео я очень долго ждал пока у нас его разблокируют и вот я посмотрел спасибо тебе Eric Jacobus и вся съёмочная группа работавшая над этим роликом
Even the hair is on point! gj
Thumbs up if you rewatched this over and over again
Love your stuff, talk about a hidden gem of a channel
Very nice. Loved the hand movements.
the handwork is incredible
How in the heck do you come up with all these intros, outros, and the placing of each planned attack almost so perfectly? Your choreography is mad amazing!!! I know this was posted like 8 years ago but I wanna see something like this again!
Yet another top class performance buy the team!! Well done guys!
Really good fight. Well done.
If they gave out Oscars for kickass fights this would win by a landslide.
I love these videos. The fights are great and the stories are better than most fill length movies these days.
Damn Hiroshi that fall at the end looked painful. great work
amazing. just amazing
wow wow wow wow wow wow incredible incredible
I subscribed after watching this. A brilliant, technically choreographed fight scene. Only fight scenes better are the ones in The Raid Redemption.
Beautiful fight scene. You guys always do great work
I love you Eric!!!
impressive really very complicated choregraphy
That Bourne theme lol but great fight scene though
You guys are beast. I´ve been watching your shortfilms for years (I love Undercut, poor ninja dog) and it keeps better and better. Wish you have a leader role on a important movie
haha amazing choreography though! really good!!
That was awesome!
this choreo is epic.
Oh my goodness. This is good stuff!!! Amazing choreography and certainly some of the best hand to hand exchanges i've seen in a while!
sick fight... cool speed and tempo.
You guys are awesome I love watching your stuff.
This is the best RUclips Kungfu scene I've seen so far! Excellent! the action editing seemed smooth to me, the music added to the suspence, great facial expressions during the fight!
It's true Chan's style has evolved over the years, but have you seen Wheels on Meals? It's one of my fave Chan films, directed by the masterful Sammo Hung co-staring Yuen Biao. Anyway, this short imitates that style of fighting flawlessly so the title of the vid is entirely accurate
Wow, wow, wow! Guys this was just fantastic! Great job!!
Awesome.
@wolf22: continuity and logic is incredibly important in crafting a fight like this - there is a definite progression, or a "story" in our choreography that begins somewhere and takes the characters on a quick little journey where there has to be some sort of transformation. We each came to the fight with certain ideas, and try our best to string them together in a narrative fashion, throwing away the ideas that didn't fit the tone or the "story".
-Pete Lee, shooter co-director
IS THIS LIKE THE FIRST EPISODE FOR A SERIES OR SOMETHING?! OMGAWD IM SO PUMPED UP NOW AWESOME..... Okay.... Sorry. Ah-hem*........ That was good.
That's how it is in Wheels on Meals. That's what they were replicating.
Jackie Chan style, no hitting, just touching and dancing
bravo!
awsome fight scene
Awesome punch and blocks at 2:05
awesome
Subbed, you guys are incredible!
This is amazing, damn.
@crichtonIASA Thanks man. This vid is in our channel. No news on BDB, but I'm currently working on my personal project Death Grip. Moving nicely and if all goes as planned Death Grip will smash Contour.
I'm so surprised you haven't had a copy-right claim on the Bourne music...but this is really good, guys!
haha he even has Jackie Chan's hair.
So Eric can kick ya head in AND twist ya arm off like it's the leg off a well cooked turkey..........AWESOME!!!!
cool!
Great scene! Eric looked like Jesus Christ doing martial arts. cool!
1:17 bullet holes missing haha
I can't wait for Die Hard 5 now even more! Always looking forward to that! Is there another fight in that movie that you choreographed? And any other movies coming out that you choreographed? You got to meet Bruce Willis?! This is stellar news!!!! I think this is the wisest choice Hollywood has made since Jack Foley made sound! You guys are awesome!
This is my dream, to be an awesome stuntman ^_^
wow was that a real gun?
i've been following you guys for like ten years, your action scenes never disappoint. this is definitely one of your best!!
Liked the ending long shot. It kinda reminded me of the ending to Michael Clayton (George Clooney movie)
Do you still work with Hiroshi Adachi?
Hey awesome job. I'm a student filmmaker. I really enjoy the look and grit of your performance. Question: what makes a good fight scene? Any feedback would be great.
One of the best martial arts scenes I've seen.
What style practiced each?
totally amazing fight scene! i was like u inspired by Jackie chan that i also made some fight scene on my channel, but not as good of course. But this fight scene really really awesome! Great job!:) pls make more Jackie Chan/Donnie yen inspired fight scenes!!
Pauses can be well implemented that's for sure. But here it's just eye staring.
@wolf22 Hey Wolf, we devise a structure with key ideas that accent the narrative with a strong bond between the ideas holding them together. I tend to be the guy who 'glues' the ideas together, throwing in the hand- and footwork or 'notes' as I see em. It's typical for someone else to propose a brilliant idea and for me to say, "Okay, but we have to get there first." Then I close my eyes and get frustrated at myself until it comes to me, angles and all.
-Eric Jacobus, bearded dude
@wolf22 Not usually, though we'll sometimes come back to fill spots in. Much easier to go linearly.
better than any fight seen in the US movie ever
Thanks :)
Is "Gōjū Ryū Karate" ;)
Greetings nice video.
0:30 Bourne theme song xD , awesome
LOL Colin Farrell at 1:50
oh wow! is this Wing Chun Style? the form the person is using looks like hes doing! :D
so the asian is benny the jet eh, and jackie is the white guy. I love that fight scene :DDD
Where those the actual sounds? I'm just asking because I can hear the echo of each punch bounce off the hallway walls.
You’re only allowed to say it’s inspired by Wheels on Meals if somebody does that epic low-down flip that Jackie did
@EdwardJamesInes It's nothing in particular. Stunt People have a bunch of martial artists, ranging from Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, Wing Chun, Jeet Kun Do, etc.
