Ahhh memories. I watched this preview over and over in between high school classes on macbooks and just lamented it stopped before it got to the good part. Nice to use imagination on it
My god.... I've been following these since RVD1, like a lot of the people here, and I just want to say... That spinning-camera, round-the-action scene just took my breath away.
all i gotta say is holy crap... these guys are awesome! all their duels are the best. i love where he cuts the saber hilt and when theyre all super fast... i cant wait till its done.
i think they do, and thats what gets me the most is how they do that. ive been watching this LOT now and ive paused them to a point of when they come out and brandon's goes back in, its either engineered or done with an invisible trick (computer stuff) dont know how they do it but its awesome
OMG!! I WANNA SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!! Oh, well, guess i just have to wait and see. Thks so much for posting this! Yay! Now not only a RVD2 but also a RVB2. Truthfully though, I think Ryan should win this one. Like really win! Go Ryan!!
This makes me want to go out and make another saber video. Ryan Wieber was our inspiration and we used RVD1 as our example to achieve the same quality or better. To say the least we actually succeeded! Some people say ours was even better than RVD1, but about a week after we released TVJ, Ryan and Dorkman released RVD2! Which blew EVERYTHING out of the water. Now this? They are awesome. Someday we'll revisit saber dueling and make it once again our goal to match Ryan Wieber :)
No, Ryan had some imported from New Zealand to make Ryan vs Dorkman 2. My guess is he either imported a couple more or used two spares he had from production.
If I remember correctly, the lightsabers are Ryan's design and construction. He would usually have them up for sale but he's occupied with NBC doing "Heroes".
The blades are actually made out of carbon fiber, since it's so strong and durable. Then that is just wrapped in red gaffers tape so it's easy to see during the rotoscoping process...
Damn they Worked hard on that Choreography...It would take me a good 2 months of repetition to flow with that much speed...LOL. Very Very Good..I wonder what the other entries are looking like...
No typically they are are held with a pressure screw. If you look at the two videos I posted (which are nothing like the quality of Ryans or Brandons) mine is connected into my hilt with only one screw.
Wants to keep fighting. I'm not sure if you have ever been in this situation but when your fighting your adreniline is very high, your blood is pumping and you just get so excited. You'll see stuff like that in alot of fights where they don't win yet because they like that rush and want to prolong it. Yes it is stupid, but when people get that type of "High" they arn't exactly thinking clearly.
@ChaosOmegaNova i wouldnt get on them to bad for not having it finished yet. if you think about the length of the vid in terms of frames rather than seconds or minutes it kinda puts things into perspective. they do have over 5,000 frames to edit here.
CGI effects, they have their sabers modeled in 3d and they place them into the film, then when they catch them it's just someone tossing it to them for the most part.
2:17 It's been years I could never unsee that at this moment Ryan could have easily killed Bran, his second lightsaber is totally free to strike in the back !
Well I know it takes much time but uhh... maybe they are adding some new moves. I really hope RvsB2 will be 2x longer then this preview coz it's worth watching ! They improved so much and I hope they will bring some more extreme fast fights with good acting.
This video is already available for public download on the LCC VI site. Anyone can go there and download it, so I see no reason why it shouldn't be here. The reason the other guy's vids got taken down was because he was adding his own shitty rotoscoping and effects to their video without their permission. All I've uploaded is the original, unmodified contest entry.
well, well, well. they're still at it i see. COOL! my guess is: Flyte: green, Ryan 2x blue again. music: 5/5 coreography: 5/5 originality: 4/5 (Flyte's saber destroyed -again-, the staff gets halved and half is used by Flyte -again-, but the destroyed saber's hilt is used this time and Ryan goes dual style lets me say nothin less then 4)
I can't WAIT for the real thing. Nice going, Ryan and Brandon!!! If you guys need someone to work on more of your movies I will be happy to join the "Force". Where do you get the sabers for your movies?
exelent can't wait for the summary to unleash oo who wins!!? just one question how the hell did they engineer the blades coming out from the handles in the beginning???
i only discovered all these amazing fan made duels tonight. and from first impressions. iv decided brandon kicks the butt. hes the only one who doesnt look like a kid who only watches porn and star wars.lol
Preview meaning... most of the effects still need to be added and stuff (I thought it was a tiny bit blury) Great though, although I was constantly reminded of RvD1 and 2, and also RvB1
I'm actually working on some choreography for a lightsaber fight of my own :) lol I dunno about topping anything that these guys have done lol but here's hoping it'll be at least cool to watch :P I've got after effects and all that jazz so if anything lol the effects'll be nice lol :P
well ur not the only one with such ideas. look for "Ryan and dorkman vs flyte Trailer". there's only a fan made trailer with scenes from ep.3 only the sabers' been re-colored, but the intresting part is when it was uploaded. kinda old idea and ppl asked them about it. they said "maybe" if they won't be lazy, or summin like that. i bet it'd look cool
really A M A Z I NG
wow, now THAT was stylish choreocraphy and camerawork *,* can't wait to see this finished with all the effects
Absolutely beautiful. My god, that choreography was spectacular.
When the effects are all done this will officially be the best Fan Made Lightsaber Video ever!
Ahhh memories. I watched this preview over and over in between high school classes on macbooks and just lamented it stopped before it got to the good part.
Nice to use imagination on it
Once again, amazing performance!
I love how creative you all are in you choreography! Always something new.
Am I the only one who recognizes this music from Iron Man when he first starts flying?
My god.... I've been following these since RVD1, like a lot of the people here, and I just want to say...
That spinning-camera, round-the-action scene just took my breath away.
all i gotta say is holy crap... these guys are awesome! all their duels are the best. i love where he cuts the saber hilt and when theyre all super fast... i cant wait till its done.
LOL Iron Man music. This is going to be cool when it's done, but I don't know who to subscribe to. Ryan or Brandon? Oh well.
That was so fucking epic. You don't even have to be a star wars fan to like that, the choreography was just so intense and precise.
This is going to be a kick ass video.
I CANNOT wait!
The part at the end with the constant spinning work with the camera will look amazing.
That was a beautiful flurry towards the end...Down right gorgeous...
OMFG 2:38 amaizing. I love this, brilliantly filmed, great acting, and i love this music!
Somehow this is much cooler than *with* effects. =)
11 years later and I'm back!
the finished product of this will be amazing, their choreography is incredible
Holy cow... this is incredible!
I got to get me one of those "swords."
better and better everytime guys
The Master is back again...
Sprut Brandon!
Holy hell, now thats what i call Choreograph!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good freaken job!
i think they do, and thats what gets me the most is how they do that. ive been watching this LOT now and ive paused them to a point of when they come out and brandon's goes back in, its either engineered or done with an invisible trick (computer stuff) dont know how they do it but its awesome
3:38 on forward, that was Awesome!
You know, Lucas should just hire these guys to make these all the time because I swear, it doesn't get much better than this!
OMG!! I WANNA SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!! Oh, well, guess i just have to wait and see. Thks so much for posting this! Yay! Now not only a RVD2 but also a RVB2. Truthfully though, I think Ryan should win this one. Like really win! Go Ryan!!

Awesome, cant wait for the final version
Few Seconds later.... Ryan Dies.
(again)
Awesome!! My middle school art students are going to love this when I show it to them!!
Finally a fight in which someone uses two sabers. ^^ Awesome!
Wow! Ryan has done it again!
excellent work.
WOW, I'm super impressed!!!
they look so much older than last year. could barely regonize them. but i love the display of the duel sabers.
That was some great film making, nice moves!
ryan and brandon you guys are
AWESOME!!!!!!!
wow... even without the saber effects this looks and sounds awesome :D
Definitely awesome. Even without lightsaber sfx!
best fan video what i've ever seen...plz make effect as soon as you can.really cool ^^
Wow, and just when I thought Ryan couldn't surprise me anymore
This is amazing even without the lightsaber effects. Kinda like samurai soldiers, eh? Can't wait for the finished version!
No, Ryan had some imported from New Zealand to make Ryan vs Dorkman 2. My guess is he either imported a couple more or used two spares he had from production.
... DAT WAS SICK MAN!!!!!!!!!!!
If I remember correctly, the lightsabers are Ryan's design and construction.
He would usually have them up for sale but he's occupied with NBC doing "Heroes".
That'll look great with the efects added.
Wow this looks good.
I like these guy's choreography better than the actual Star Wars movies lol
The blades are actually made out of carbon fiber, since it's so strong and durable. Then that is just wrapped in red gaffers tape so it's easy to see during the rotoscoping process...
great swordsmen ship
holy crap man how many times did you watch this video before noticing that
dude i love this vid when is the real version comin
Epic, Just epic.
P.S. The music is AWESOME
They obviously did the effects that were needed to sell the shot and therefore make it all work, but rotoscroping is generally what you do last.
when is the real thing gonna come out, I've been waiting for like ever >:O
Damn they Worked hard on that Choreography...It would take me a good 2 months of repetition to flow with that much speed...LOL. Very Very Good..I wonder what the other entries are looking like...

Yes it is stupid, but when people get that type of "High" they arn't exactly thinking clearly.
it's simply the best.... like RVD and RVD2... or better...
omg!! wat asses... I was getting well into that haha!! I can't wait for this one!! Guna be amazing!!
I'm jealous of your lightsaber props!
Ryan you're the best
This battle is the awesomest of them all. so very epic. can't wait for the effects to get done :) Ryan wieber movies often rock ;D
how did get those red pipes in the lightsabers to appear?
@ChaosOmegaNova i wouldnt get on them to bad for not having it finished yet. if you think about the length of the vid in terms of frames rather than seconds or minutes it kinda puts things into perspective. they do have over 5,000 frames to edit here.
Sweet dude!! Awesome!
holy crap that was da s#it, cant wait to see the finished film , its goona rock
Holy crap, I hate to say this, but it looks like it could be even better than RVD2!
Epic music as well
CGI effects, they have their sabers modeled in 3d and they place them into the film, then when they catch them it's just someone tossing it to them for the most part.
Ryan has got this. Its his time. Hes lost too many and the makers know they want to see him win. I cant wait to be proven right.
i agree... i think this is going to be better than rvd2. both of them are fucking top notch.
Thank you. ^^
2:17 It's been years I could never unsee that at this moment Ryan could have easily killed Bran, his second lightsaber is totally free to strike in the back !

these guys are amazing wonder if they will ever make one with more than two of them fighting at one time like a battle rather than a dule
fantastic!!! awsome!!!! fast!!!! verry verry good fight
they are custom made carbon fiber rods. the rest of the handle was made from piping from home depot. easy to make

Where can we get this in HD ? The link doesn't work.
it is sped up a little the speed of the camora moving around them gives it away but still cool i did not notice it at first
Adrenaline High. Your not addicted to fighting, your addicted the the adrenaline rush. SO yes, you could say a "combat high" and be true.
Excellent!!! :-D
I can't WAIT for the real thing. Nice going, Ryan and Brandon!!! If you guys need someone to work on more of your movies I will be happy to join the "Force". Where do you get the sabers for your movies?
so when will they put up the completed video? BTW this is the best i have seen so far.
I'm jealous with their lightsaber prop.
awesom
exelent can't wait for the summary to unleash oo who wins!!? just one question how the hell did they engineer the blades coming out from the handles in the beginning???
You could have also read my description, which said he won already.
i only discovered all these amazing fan made duels tonight. and from first impressions. iv decided brandon kicks the butt. hes the only one who doesnt look like a kid who only watches porn and star wars.lol

Driving With The Top Down
link doesnt work? :(
I'm actually working on some choreography for a lightsaber fight of my own :)
lol I dunno about topping anything that these guys have done lol but here's hoping it'll be at least cool to watch :P
I've got after effects and all that jazz so if anything lol the effects'll be nice lol

3:40 SICK!!
Simple, they take the already broken prop, and render the top part of it in 3D then animate as if it was getting sliced in half.
ME TOO!
nice iron man homage, oh, and the video is really good too
