MOVEMENT AND SAFETY ADVISORS

The Sydney Stage Combat School’s professional Fight Directors are highly skilled and qualified in all aspects of theatrical physicality. Experts in spatial and kinetic awareness a Fight Director brings a unique perspective and wealth of knowledge to any situation of performed risk.

Any moment of violent illusion for stage or screen, from a simple trip or a slap to a climatic sword battle, or even just carrying a dead body off stage requires the attention of a trained professional. Our experience and technique ensure the safety of all involved and a higher level of believability to any fight or physical moment within a production.

There is no moment so small or insignificant that it should not be looked at and rehearsed properly, especially if it’s in the script. The writer intended that moment to be a part of the production, and if it is a physical action it is usually a pivotal time for the actor. Giving your actor the confidence to perform this action with a safe technique often allows them to free up their mind and body and give the performance their all.
