Saison 2 Episode 12 : Hunger - Glen Levi fighting master/maître de combats stunt double/doublure- Legend of the seeker 2x12- l'épée de vérité
Mentionné par Bridget Regan, j'ai trouvé intéressant d'en dire un peu
plus sur Glen Levi, qui fait une courte apparition dans l'épisode "Hunger",
en tant que guerrier confessé ( celui que Cara veut tuer :p ) mais qui a été
un doubleur (stunt double ) dans une 20aine d'épisodes de la série.
Sa principale profession est "maître d'armes"/Fighting master.
Voici une vidéo très intéressante où l'on découvre le processus d'enregistrement des mouvements sur youtube ICI. Vraiment à voir!
Voilà en anglais un petit aperçu de ses performances :
Glen Levy rose from being a small-town country boy to the heights of Hollywood, winning roles in major blockbusters as a lead stunt double and celebrity trainer of some of Hollywood's biggest stars.
Glen’s unique knowledge of the human body and ability to control his mind, have enabled him to bring martial art myths to life again. The same techniques that Glen uses to achieve physical feats (previously thought virtually impossible without aids), he now teaches to free others of the mental and physical limitations that are holding them back from success in all areas of life.
Glen’s skills have been tested and proven by NASA space scientists and biophysicists from Wayne State University in America, earning him international recognition as one of the world’s foremost martial arts masters and teachers.
Glen has been featured in four National Geographic documentaries testing the world’s top martial artists. Despite his physical prowess, Glen believes true success starts with the mind. He is living proof of the power of manifesting success in love and life.
Using his knowledge of acupressure, Glen teaches how to heal physical and mental pain using our body’s inbuilt energy and magnetism. He reveals the language that turns intent into reality.
For people who feel their physical side is holding them back, Glen reveals the Standing Meditations and body positions once used by Shaolin Monks, that result in losing weight and gaining strength through stillness.
Glen has multiple black belts in several martial arts disciplines and an unusually diverse knowledge of the many martial art styles. He has created his own unique mixed martial art called Hyoujutsu, which takes the most effective and yet deceptively simple techniques drawn from multiple martial and fighting arts.
National Geographic named Glen “The Most Dangerous Man on The Planet”
OnFilm Magazine dubbed him “Mr. Nice Guy”.
“Even though he is this little, smiling, unassuming guy, I would rather get shot again than ever feel another strike from Glen.” Charlie Parish, US Army Ranger, Los Angeles.
“I have rarely seen an actor with such a combination of talent, skill, brooding good looks and an uncanny ability to slip effortlessly between role of leading man and one of the most exceptional stuntmen I have ever met." James Lew, Martial Arts Author, Producer, Director and Celebrity Trainer.
“There is no prima donna treatment, no ego and no delays to the schedule on set. Glen is a stunt performer of the highest calibre.” Rob Tapert, Producer of TV series such as Xena and Legend of The Seeker.
“Glen, you’re bloody amazing.” Bill Nighy.
“Glen is the most charismatic, friendly and talented instructor I have ever had the pleasure to have teach at my school.” Eric Chen, head of USA Wu Shu and top USA movie fight Choreographer.Source : fortuneevents.com
