Surf the internet long enough with a craving for quality martial arts action and you’re bound to come across some of the best and brightest ever to hit the business end of a camera, and most of the content you see is free and viral for all netizens to enjoy. Take this in comparison to the multitude of action shows on television which normally cast actors who are trained long enough to look convincing on screen, and while the formula often proves viabale for the networks, it still leaves a lot wondering for those minding how genuine screen-friendly athletes could achieve the same successes they continue to exemplify through online independent mediums.

Help Crowdfund The New Star Wars Fan-Film, OUTER RIM SLAVE For Force Storm Entertainment!
This year’s Star Wars Celebration begins its four-day weekend event this Thursday on April 16, and it’s all the rage right now as fans prepare to feel the Force awaken once more this December with the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. This, coupled with last week’s digital re-release of all six previous films so far makes things even more exciting as fans and content creators gather just in time to share their own projects, fandom and more, and actor and Force Storm Entertainment founder Noah Fleder‘s latest debut effort with the J.J. Abrams-approved online fan short, The Betrayal, is no exception.
The project is the first of many to come for the channel with the hopes of creating a variety of content. Of course, some of these videos still require funding to some degree, and to that extent, Fleder is back with a brand new Indiegogo campaign to help present another action-packed venture, Outer Rim Slave, a story centered on the Jedi council’s mission to investigate and take down an intergalactic slave trafficking ring. Fleder will perform with online action favorite and star of Chris Nahon’s upcoming thriller, Lady Bloodfight, actress Amy Johnston and a cast soon to be announced as production commences, and surely those details could preferably come a lot sooner provided that donations come through.
Rest assured, if you enjoyed The Betrayal, you will definitely want to help make Outer Rim Slave happen. So if you’re interested, head over to the Indiegogo campaign page for all the details and more!
Amy Johnston's Lead Debut, LADY BLOODFIGHT, Wraps Filming
The nature of independent online action filmmaking is one that is full of surprises. It certainly lended us one in the form of actress and martial artist Amy Johnston in a viral choreography video that began making the rounds three years ago, and its benefitted her greatly with a number of appearances in several projects, including Epic Rival’s 2015 2-episode release, Clandestine.
LADY BLOODFIGHT Officially Adds Two More With Four New Posters
The production of director Chris Nahon‘s new tournament action thriller, Lady Bloodfight, is set to resume at some point between later this month and February. Not all the details are being handed out just yet, although we’ve already been graced with a number of viral photos dating back to late last year with Nahon joined by actress Amy Johnston, producer Bey Logan and action choreographer Hung Yan Yan and others.
Nowadays, with filming almost right around the corner, Logan is currently unveiling four new promotional character photos for two of the film’s actresses, Kathy Wu as Wai and Jet Tranter as Cassidy. For those of you who have been keeping up, Tranter was previously attached to star in the film in its previous iteration as Lady Bloodsport with a different cast line-up being prepped for plans to film late in 2013. For whatever reasons there were, however, evidently the production steered in a new direction and changes were made in lieu of the film’s European Film Market announcement at the top of 2014. Alas, with Tranter still attached, it will be interesting to see who will further line-up our combatants for this international female-centric action thriller.
Check out the pictures below!
From Voltage Pictures, Lady Bloodfight joins Wu and Tranter with Jenny Wu and lead actress Amy Johnston in the story of Jane, a traveling backpacker in Asia whose exceptional fighting skills are put to the test against hidden forces of evil within “The Kumite”, an all-female underground fight circuit. As earlier, more casting details are expected in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for more announcements!
Watch The Powerful First Episode Of Epic Rival's CLANDESTINE
It probably dawned on many of you who may have been following the workings of online film production group, Thousand Pounds Action Company, since promoting and successfully fundraising their newest action series, Clandestine, why it feels like it has taken forever to see what the project has to offer. It probably feels the same way for its creative trio, Chris Cowan, Haile Lee and Lex Randleman, who kicked off their second film production arm, Epic Rival, back in April, while doing their best to help bring Clandestine to its fullest potential. That, of course, meant taking it to various studios for any number of meetings to see about possible network expansion, and deservedly so.
If you’ve been following Cowan and Lee for at least as long as the last couple of years, you will notice the electric responses they’ve received for the amount and quality of work they have achieved in the past several years, bringing a careful touch to their visionary blend of live-action spectacle with martial arts and storytelling gems, layered with attributions to various elements and franchises of gaming and Japanese anime and manga, from their numerous conceptual videos for Clandestine, to the arduous wait and delivery of the independently made Naruto Shippuden: Dreamer’s Fight, Eleven, Street Fighter X Tekken and even their most recent homage to TMNT, all of which have generated some of the biggest online viral video crowds to date, from the interwebs and blogosphere to the gatherings at Anime Expo in Los Angeles. It’s all been about strength in numbers at this point, because even as we’ve come this far, Cowan, Lee and Randleman are going to need all the support they can get as they continue their quest to bring Clandestine to episodic life.
The fundrasier eventually led to the subsequent completion of two principal episodes sampling the epic generational story of love, honor, family, betrayal and spirtual awakening, all encompassed in a young woman’s quest of self-discovery amidst political upheaval and turmoil among polarized clans. Lady Bloodfight star, actress and stuntwoman, Amy Johnston, whose 2012 action sampler at the formerly-titled White Lotus kung fu gym has become the talk of the interwebs, is the heroine of this stellar new project, and as you will see by the release of the first episode in the player below, if the quality and impact here say nothing else about Clandestine, it certainly says this: There are too many good projects out there online that get left by the wayside because someone upstairs in a suit who is too busy looking up the next thing to adapt from a comic book or video game doesn’t know a good thing when they see it. This has to stop.
Clandestine is fresh, original and rich with all the trappings of what could be a truly awesome and fruitful investment in televised action adventure programmimg. And after this write up, I hope the right people will start paying attention. Because if not now, then when?
Johnston is joined by Marshal Hilton and Judith Scarpone, along with Jaymes Edwards, Ming Lo, Luise Heath, actor and stunt coordinator Aaron Toney, Laura Burgo, Michelle Lee, Christopher Rivas and Katrina Walters, with episode two excerpts featuring Reuben Langdon, Linden King, Jimmy Chhiu and Gui DaSilva.
SERIES DESCRIPTION:
Enter the world of Clandestine.
Hidden within the recesses of modern society, lives four ancient supernatural clans who have been feuding since the beginning of time. Adelene, a young girl who knew nothing of the war between the clans, is suddenly thrown in the thick of it when it’s prophesied that she is the next matriarchal successor to the one of the Families.
Adelene begins her journey to learn all of what mankind has forgotten as she struggles to become the clans new “Matriarch”. The secrets of what life was like “before”, the decisions that risk countless lives, and the constant struggle to keep the clan united, are just a few of the dangerous trials she must now face… and survival is not guaranteed.
A martial arts action epic with political intrigue, love, and unforgettable supernatural action.
