Stunt Reel 2017 – Rustic Bodomov

A stunt reel is something Stunt performers use in order to showcase their work to Stunt Coordinators and Producers who may be looking to hire them. We gather our work together from past footage, and spread it around our networks. A common running time for a stunt reel is around 1 minute. This lets us showcase our movement and talent abilities without boring the viewer, as casting directors and stunt coordinators often don’t have too much time on their hands when looking to hire people.

As an example, here is my current stunt reel:

Along with a stunt reel, a stuntman needs to also have a good headshot and stunt resume. With these tools, we go “hustle” sets and introduce ourselves to the stunt coordinator. The key to a good hustle is to show up looking professional, have your resume handy, and don’t hang around too much. Just be professional, get in, say hi, and get out.

Stunts is a dangerous job which must be done safely for both the people doing the job, and the production insurance. This produces a tightly knit group of professionals who rely on knowing each other’s strengths to get the job done. The stunt community is therefore a hard shell to crack for anyone first starting out, as you have the catch-22 situation of wanting to gain trust by working jobs, but not being able to work jobs until people trust you. This is where having a good reel and a good personality comes in.

If you are a person who wants to get into stunts, be prepared to do A LOT of networking. There are stunt networking events and parties you will find out about once you start meeting people and asking questions. Bring your best self, and BE HONEST. You don’t want to fake your way into a job that you can’t physically do.

If you are a filmmaker who wants to find a good stunt performer / coordinator ask around your friends first, then be prepared to do some of your own searching. Stunt Reels are also a good way to find coordinators, as many stunt performers (after about 5 years experience) will start having coordinator credits show up on their IMDB and resumes. Hiring a stunt coordinator is the safest move when you are planning any sort of action in your project, as they will be able to provide the knowledge and equipment for everything to go smooth and safely. Also, a stunt coordinator may be able to help you out with how to film your action.

13 Pumps – A Coffee Fight Scene

Here’s an action comedy short film (fight scene) that I made recently, about a guy who takes his coffee addiction too seriously! We came up with the name, 13 Pumps, during the filming process. Some people love their coffee creations just right, and get really upset if they don’t get them the way they wanted.. I used to see people like this all of the time when I worked at Starbucks in the past, and have always wondered what would happen if a real fight broke out.

So without further delay, please check out 13 Pumps below!

We came up with, and improvised the story with my stunt friends Vaughndio Forbes and Andrew Dismuke. My wonderful girlfriend Mary ran action camera for her first time, and I think she kicked some butt!

We filmed this fight the day after I watched the Keanu Reeves movie, John Wick, for the first time. I was really impressed by the fight choreography put together by the 87 Eleven Action Team, especially how they incorporated several good Judo throws into their fight scenes. My main martial art background is in Judo..so on the day of filming 13 pumps, I decided I wanted to try and incorporate some throws into my choreography, as well!! Vaughndio (the guy I’m fighting) did really well in learning and performing the throw on the spot.

This was also the first time that I’ve incorporated a “scorpion kick” into a fight scene. Made into reality after a good suggestion by Andrew (the guy in the white shirt), I was pleasantly surprised in how the movement turned out on camera! And Vaughndio’s impact-ful front fall that followed, made for a nice sequence in my eyes.

13 Pumps is a fight scene about Starbucks Coffee. Starring Rustic Bodomov, Vaughndio Forbes, and Andrew Dismuke. Kick Rox, Kellock71, Rustic B, Kouro Media.

Another interesting movement that I was grateful worked out on camera, was the last breakfall in the fight. The reaction my character takes from Andrew’s spinning hook kick is called a “sayuchi” in Hong Kong stunt terms. I had only ever done it in a gymnastics gym before, and though it was a little nerve wracking the first time, I was pleasantly surprised with the end result.
You feel so embarrassed that you cannot get it up again despite ample sexual desire in https://www.unica-web.com/archive/980721ci.htm purchase cheap cialis you.

STUNT TIP: The secret to doing the Sayuchi stunt fall, (in my personal way of thinking), is to perform it as a “header” stunt fall where you break your momentum by touching your toe to the ground first and slowing yourself down. Then from there, you add a little rotation to the beginning part of the movement, and land it like a traditional judo side breakfall.

Thank you again for checking out 13 Pumps – A Coffee Fight Scene! I hope you enjoyed it.. Recently, I have started making a conscious effort into expanding my youtube channel, so if you get a chance please check it out! And if you like what you see, subscribe! Otherwise, I would love to hear your feedback in the comments, so I can keep learning and improving as a filmmaker.

Have a beautiful day,

Rustic B
