One Good Stab Deserves Another In The New Action Short, BATTLE OF THE BLADES!

Just yesterday I shared my most recent article on independent action short clips featuring weapons. Of course, it might have served well to package with that report but knowing me, I can never wait to get a lot of these clips out fast enough sometimes. But anyway, today I bring you the latest action short from independent filmmaker and action director Shaun Charney (a.k.a. Seshiro Kazama) titled Battle Of The Blades: Girlfight/Knifefight. The new short features two gorgeous action and stunt performers I have mentioned on Film Combat Syndicate in previous articles: Peipei Alena Yuan (Star Trek, Step Up 3D) and Michelle Jubilee Gonzalez (The Adventures Of Superseven, Sons Of Anarchy).

Multifaceted actress, martial artist, screenfighter and dancer Peipei Alena Yuen is set to appear in Edge Of Faith, a new fan film short from director Andrew J. Neis based on the hit parkour action video game thriller. In light of this, Yuen, in recent weeks, also shared a newly completed fight clip to help continue showcasing her talents as a cinematic action performer opposite independent filmmaker and action veteran Shaun Charney. You may remember Charney if you are familiar with the growing independent action movement of the past decade, having worked with such folks as Micah Brock, Vlad Rimburg and Jeff Centuari to name a few.

You can now check it out in full in the embed below, where you can also subscribe to Yuen’s channel for even more awesome content to come!

Neis is already going viral for a new shortfilm coming this November titled Edge Of Faith. Inspired by the 2008 first person action adventure video game, Mirror’s Edge, Neis‘s shortfilm is based on an old screenplay he wrote titled “Lover’s Leap: A Parkour Love Story”. But instead, Neis wanted to crank it up a notch and chose to make a dual-purpose shortfilm that would further manifest his love for gaming, indie action and film culture, as well as showcase the eclectic talents, ANP Stunts, a multi-faceted drama, movement and screenfighting film team he founded with his brother, Peter Neis.
