Mantis Style Gunkata

This is a quick video I made with my friend Ben. What we tried to do here is create a new style of Gunkata, mantis-style Gunkata. It involves a handgun in the left hand and a knife in the right hand. We didn't have any props so it's very conceptual. The action flys very fast so here is the concept. I am pulling a gun on a cleric. (I am the one standing to the right of the screen) The Cleric, Ben, deflects my handgun blast, stabs me in the back, holds on to the handle of the blade pulling me down and firing his handgun over my back, effectively using my body for cover. After he has hit whatever target he intended, he spins around with the knife and slits my throat, ending in a gunkata stance ready to take another shot. I have two versions of the video available, a slow-motion one and a fast action one. Let me know if you guys like this, I hope to maike more but with props and costumes and better setting.
