Stunt diary 53th week
Wednesday, Jul 22, 2009 4:16AM / Standard Entry
Hello members,
let me tell you about my last 4 days.
Ok, on Thursday Max Huang (AnD member) and me was driving to Berlin for a shooting and a Show.
After we arrived by Ismet (wudang-deutschland.de) we met our bro Muhammed there. This evening we don´t do a lot of stuff because we know next day is going to be stressful. Day start´s at 7 I think and the shhoting was a Nollywood Production. (More Info you can find on the Blog of David Török And member). We did a little performance there with Wushu. It was a nice job with nice people. A lot of fun. But the problem was the shooting take too much time and we need to be on the other site of the town fort he Wushu show.
(Waiting for the shooting)
We only had 15 minutes and no plan which way we can take to go there and it took you at last 40 minutes to get there. The other problem was that four people have to drive with Max´s car but it was full of Requisite stuff from a other movie. But we manage it. We sit there beetwen the Lights, Televisions and so on and Hui was the only one who´s was prepared for the Show because we changed our clothes after the shooting. Good Idea! I called David because he drives with a other car and he told me:"No time for warm up! Strech in the car!!!!" Ähhhh.... Ok we try but... you know :-)
After we arrived there (half hour to late) we have to carry our stuff and run! It took us 5 minutes to reach the theatre and we run the whole time! No condition more for the Show! Next problem. Max forgot his Pudao in the car and that means ok Max do Nanquan for the Pudao part and my Nanquan part was changed to Liu Xing Chui! I don´t prepare a part fort he Show that´s why I extemporise my whole LXC part. I was scared a little bit because I hit my Head very hard few day ago. (Watch last diary) But we did it and after that we was invide to lunch! Great lunch.
In the evening we watched The Champions together. Just chill...:-) Some crazy guys did a night training session after the movie! I only make some pictures:
(These are the three candles! Picture with high exposure time! Throw it with a twisting movement! Like it?)
Friday:
Start at 9.30, was a long day that´s why pretty late. First we need to by Wushu stuff! We only have one shop I know for Wushustuff here in Germany. That´s why it was so important because I need a new Nangun! Of course I by other stuff too. Ok nnow we have to drive back to Nuremberg. But we make a Stopp by a Good friend Mike in Lobenstein too met there Oliver who want to support my Wushu Show in Nuremberg. After a little sit in with Mike we left Max´s car there and drove to Nuremberg. At there wem et my other bro Tobi. We four want to Rock Nuremberg with Wushu. We tried the show and it works pretty good. In the evening it began to rain and we have a wooden ground. Butt he Show was good and everyone like it very much. Know we want to meet my brother for Harry Potter! I want to see if some people I know from Germany was in the credits and of cours I like these movies very much! But as you know no time that´s why we have to ran there. We did it just in time. The movie start and I see that I wear my kneepad´s. Hahaha... no time get them away. This day ends at 3.30 in the morning!
On Sunday Max, Oli, Desiree and me was driving back to Chemnitz for a Independent Movie Project. Need to be there at 12.00 that´s why we stand up at 8.00. This day was ok. We have to do a little Zombie stuff like look bad or break my foot. Was a nice time in Chemnitz. Shoot was not so long that´s why we (Max and me) leave at 17.00. And then we drive right into a big traffic jam. It took us one hour more to get home!
After at least 1.300 km these day ends!
It sound very stressful and it was but I like these time more because you can see something is moving!
I love it to take those kind of pics!!!
I forgot too book a flight too England! This week I do!
See you next week!
Bye

Stunt diary 50th-52thweek
Wednesday, Jul 15, 2009 3:34AM / Standard Entry
Hey guys,
yes you see right! Stunt diary is on again after 3 weeks of …. Silence! Why? There was nothing to tell! The decition was made in the last weeks if I can drive to Wushu WM in Canada or not. I give all my energy for that because I want to go there! That was my plan!
This year Canada. I need that for the Register. If I can prove that I did international competition´s I can give that to them and I “only” have to make 5 other stuff. It count´s for 5 years! After that I want to retire and I can give all my energy to the other 5 things! That was the plan! But they don´t want me in the Team. Politics! Hate that! I prepare for such a long time and... no? Fuck it!
("The Team")
Ok, now I plan to concentrate on the Rock Climbing certificate! This week I need to book my first flight to England! Maybe it took me two years for that. And all the other stuff (Tumbling, High Diving, Swimming, Trampolining) took also a long time. If I can do Wushu just for fun and not for competition it would be easier to succeed! No it´s harder for me! I also want to see Angelica Cukon there or maybe Gogi or the other Athlete´s! But I can´t drive there and only watch the competition. That would kill me. In spite of this I hope everyone have a good competition.
Movies in Germany are rare now. I heard we have a problem with the money here and there are 70 movies canceled this year! That´s terrible! It´s because of the Movie Sponsorship. Next year the contract expires and we don´t know if there is a chance to extension for the contract! Let´s hope.
Ok what else to tell about stunts here. Now I choreograph some fights for two movies and on Friday I have a shooting for a Nollywood Production! It´s African for Hollywood. Never heard of that but I think it would be fun!
Oh and now there start´s the new movie project Gangs I´m part of, watch the Trailer:

Ok now there will be a weekly Stunt diary.
Hope it´s interesting
PS: Fun stuff for you... it happens the last Training. I prepare a Wushu Show with Liu Xing Chui and... watch yourself!

Ok I take care and we see us next week

Stunt diary 48th week

Subject: Lot of stuffHello there, what a week. Monday and Tuesday I do the Galileojob I wrote in my last Blog. Wednesday I want to make some T-shirt´s with my new Logo. But the Logo was to hard for them to copy it on a shirt. This week I need to find someone who can do it! I know it´s hard but I don´t want to chance it!
On Thursday I drove to Berlin… get up at 5! Uaaahhhh… That´s my fucking freetime! I think if you really need freetime do a other job! Ok after 5 Hours later I was there and I can train with my Team for about three Hours! That was so fucking good and it makes a lot of fun.
After the Training I have to visit a guy from the biz. I don´t can tell you what he do because… I don´t know but he called me for a meeting. He organized a little meeting with various guy´s from the movie business. I met there some interesting guy´s that can help me with the Extra job´s here in Germany. And I talked to two movie production´s that need Stuntguys for their movie. Hope to work with them this summer. After that I visit a good friend in Berlin. He have his own Wushu school. Check it out:
http://www.wuyi-akademie.com/
On Friday I met the guy who want´s to help me with the Extra´s. He have a school for coaching actor´s. We have an idea and want to work together. I give him some advices for Stunts and he make a Demo with me and give that to a Director who makes a TV series. Hope it works. Only 60 days! Aaaaahhhh… Hope it works! After that I drove to Braunschweig and I want to train there in a good tumbling hall! But, the car won´t work. It start´s to burn by the ride. The car was broke and I need to drive back to home with the train on Sunday. Pffffff….. what a week!
Here are some pics from my first little job as a coordinator! We want a crash for a Firefighter practice show! Here are the pics:
Here is the crash. Falco drove the green one into the standing one.
After it!
No the Firefighter have to rescue the guy we put in! Hard job for them :-)))
