Hey, I'm making a video to explain to normies what is the difference between LARP/Reenactment/Artistic fencing/modernfencing/Hema/Behurt/weaboomartialart.
No SCA as they don't exist back there.
5minutes max per subject, I really want to keep it clear and short.
Also, another goal is to show that the objectives are not the same, and so that the dickwaving between groups is dumb.
the begining where I explain what I'm doing is finished, I'm trying to do it not in the style of a attention whore showing my face speaking, but only with video content.
Thus, I need content. Anybody got some nice webm to embellish the video ? Ugly or clumsy is good enought, too, I will make the first part about each group with every bad stereotype it has, alongside cringy video. For example, LIGHTING BOLT for Larp, ephoric trenchcoat with katana, ect.
I'm looking for cringe on modern fencing right now, too, but anything will do.
Begining with my oc, that is the introduction.
Shit, fucked up the webm.
here is the better version.

I really wish I'd saved the movie, as the opening is just fantastic but check out:

Documentary that follows some hard core larpers around - it is comedy gold. (And actually somewhat interesting to boot.)

The only difference between reenacting and LARPing is that the former has all their rules laid out for them from the start, whereas the latter makes it up as they go.

Reenacting implies there's a script/events are already planned to play out. LARPing is closer to live action D&D and does usually have rules in place. With the amount of fantasy involved varying depending on the group.

The thing in reenacting is that the "rules" differ nearly as much as the rules in differents larp, and often borrow things from artistic for some groups and hema from others.
What they do have that is unique is formations fighting.

Can confirm. The larp I'm in has a whole set of rulebooks that play out like dnd. Look up dystopia rising. Their book is even available for free, and their ST (Story Tellers) comunicate with their players.
DR, post apocalyptic dystopian future roleplay and survival, fully immersive, with zombies. (Might have traces of steampunk and Mad Max)

>action breakdown
That's really cool.
>>1593039
Yes, often the action is quite hard to read.

There is stuff like this one. It's always great to get the explanations on one good exchange.
>>1593021
So much cooler than bullshit Olympic fencing.
>>1578851
Nothing stopping the other guy from just bringing his sword back down hard (as he literally just gave him a huge opening and a massive swing distance) spitting his head open...
>>1594926
I forgot to save that really cool webm of a slow mo snipe in olympic fencing. It's just that the rules are more akin to a game in it than to a martial art.

You've been on /wsg/ for a while if that was the background music you chose.
Don't get me wrong, I approve.
>>1601887
Fuck, I'm an idiot. I just got the joke.
>>1601887
Yea, /wsg/ was a big inspiration for the intro.
I wanted to use something that could hook a facebook hovering cursor, and a initial D web-m do exactly that.
The real video is less shitty, thought, but I fucked the compression.
Has anyone got that (judo?) webm where they are tangled up, and when the guy seems like he's going to get rekt he does a backflip and manages to sweep the other one's leg with his shoulder?
Been looking for it forever
