I've watched a lot of smash brothers, and listened to a lot of commentary during matches. I think I would like to think about if I were commentating this fight, what would I say to make it interesting? You have play by play commentary, color commentary, analysis of the match up, player analysis, discussion of momentum swings, how players have been performing recently, discussion of the stage, etc. There's so much I think you can glean from fighting game commentary to incorporate into writing about fight scenes.
Great insight.
Stay away from Frankenstein writing. Repeated poundings. Layer the fight scene with: thought, dialog, description spectators environment, strategies, shift momentum, goal of the fight, escalate wounds, pause with dialog. (I remember the old batman shows where they spoke to one another between the BANGS! 💥 and the BOOMS! ✨️ lol'!😂 childish? but I get the point.)
Question: How about a (short gazing) Mr.Miyagi "like" mentor moment. Use the force LUKE! Wasn't long & it didn't go on and on. It was quick and to the point. I was 13 in the movie theater watching star wars for the first time, & I cried compounded with the dramatic music. Still, hits me in the chest right there.
I really like your videos! Thank You! 👍💥
Thank you, great list. Just want to point out the Princess Bride scene was written for laughs, so isn't typical.
Yeah, the movie definitely is funny, but I still think you can steal some techniques from their fight scenes.
Excellent
Keep it up, mate. These videos are good.
Awesome tips. Thanks for sharing
This is great!
