My Thesis Movement Piece. A live Lightsaber fight. Original Choreography. Rehearsed for 4 months. Everything is live including the sound. It's a little dark so unfortunately you can't see all the stunts clearly - it was intended for live viewing - but enjoy!!!
Credits:
Red Saber: Andrew Mayer
Blue Saber: Alex Mandell
Green Saber: Brian Vaughan
Live Keyboard Sound Effects Player: Ross Neuenfeldt
Sound Design: Robert Vavra
Light Design: Jesse Sheldon
Choreographer: Andrew Mayer
Music: "Duel of the Fates" by John Williams
Part of the Boston University School of Theatre Senior Acting Thesis 2011
All 3 of the lightsabers come from Ultrasabers. The red saber had a bit of an accident near to the show so one of the blades lost some of it's brightness but they still did the trick. As for sound, there was a sound designer and live mix happening during the fight. Nothing to do with Ultrasabers on that end of it!
I love that someone from the audience yells out NOOOOOOOOOOO lol
A fight for the last pizza roll in the oven
One willing to share
The other one wanting for himself
Better lightsaber choreography than the sequel trilogy
I will second Novastar's kudos! We have only been working together for a short time on saber combat, but I have a whole new appreciation for the physical and mental challenges a good piece of choreography entails. You guys really rocked it!
Special praise to Andrew Mayer for keeping the pace with the saber staff! You didn't show any signs of slowing down towards the end. Awesome stamina!
That was fucking epic
Great work!
@Squall045 Ha. well I just couldn't die in the middle of my thesis, Then what ... get up and continue? ... only if this had been the last thing would that have happened ... but where's the fun in that!
yeaaaa andrew! :D
Trailer will be up shortly. It will be linked to here. There was a bit of a hold up with post production but now its rolling again.
This is so awesome
Please refrain from clapping every other note in "Duel of the Fates".
That was the coolest thing I've ever seen!
omg omg omg il see that again any day
this is inspiring
Please make more lightsaber battle videos. Please.
Ultrasabers. See below! Sorry for the delayed reply. Been busy with a film. Check back soon for updates. (Romeo's Turn)
Excellent! That's awesome.
They underestimated the power of the Dark Side. They paid the price for their lack of vision!
YESSSS!!!!

I want to do stuff like this.
Awesome!!!
Hey that was cool! Good job dudes!

What the hell that's not how the phantom menace went he got stabbing the green lightsaber guy but the blue guy was supposed to slice his legs off
Andrew Mayer Hey there... Novastar here again... just wanted to add one more ~positive~ comment yet again! :)
To this day, I don't see many TOTALLY ~live~ saber performances rivaling the one you did, and most of my own (especially Balance of Power, the live ESB and ANH shows, etc.)...
Let me know if you're down to chat sometime! We should pick each other's brains on some things... learn new stuff... find out things we agree on / disagree on, etc. :)

Love how at many moments you see them actually swinging just to hit the sword. I get it's an act. Just saying to be on the realistic side and to make the battle more real and have more skill of where you try to avoid getting hit, instead of counting on the opponents to aim to hit your sword haha.
real pretty
I was searching for it and I did not find it. Where is it?
great fight, but it gets kinda old when ALL the fans of Star Wars have the Sith win...
how did you do the sound live for the sabers clashing if the sabers didn't have sound? was there someone pressing buttons for that?
i wanna be therre thats cool hahaha
do movie theaters allow sabers?
Jake Gage pretty sure it’s a theatre for plays. Not an actual movie theatre
In movie theatres no blasters are allowed
Where did you get the staff saber?
yeaaaa andrew! :D
typical how you choreographed yourself to win despite that making no canonical sense :P
Realt Cool, but red needs to add more aggressiveness
But it was Obiwan who won, not Darth Maul.
Good job, though
This is how the movie should've ended
I want to train for that although you did get something wrong Darth maul does not win that fight
It probably would have been easier to have a fight where Darth Maul wins, most likely to make it shorter, also Maul's lightsaber gets cut in half, and I'm sure that would have been fairly difficult to make it seem real, although they could have had Maul die another way. But its whatever :)
It was awesome until the ending :(
