Around The Web: Indie Action Arms Itself In KNIFE FIGHT And KING OF STICKS
Action actor and stuntman Gui Da Silva returns back to the screen for his latest performance in the new shortfilm, Knife Fight. The shortfilm is Da Silva‘s latest (….ahem…) stab at weapons’ choreography opposite fellow actor and stuntman James Young, exquisitely arranged once again by LBP Stunts Chicago’s own Emmanuel Manzanares, who previously directed Da Silva in the stellar pistol-whip action short, Extraction.
Continuing our coverage from the West side, we head back East in New York City where eight-year veteran actor, martial artist, trainer, fight choreographer and up-and-coming filmmaker Lang Yip (Xingyiquan Applications And Techniques) is based over at Cinematic Fight Studio for his newest online action performance in King Of Sticks. The new shortfilm features Yip opposite CFS’s own Neyssan Falahi, a member of the team since October who also specializes in Muay Thai Boran.
