Writing Believable Fight Scenes
Starts: July 1,
2018
Instructor: J.T. Evans
Instructor: J.T. Evans
Class
Description: Knowing how to write a
true-to-life fight scene requires getting into fights. Yes, multiple fights.
Many of them. That's painful because your opponents tend to strike back. There
is an alternate approach, though. Find someone who has been in their fair share
of fights, also knows how to write, and can impart their decades of
battle-earned wisdom to the eager student.
This class will cover a wide
range of topics including the purpose of a fight in fiction, gender
differences, martial arts styles, weapon types (melee and ranged), writing mass
combat, how to visualize a fight scene, and what happens to people when they
are wounded. There are many nuances to each of these topics (and more!) that
you won't want to miss out on.
Bio: Roughly three decades ago, J.T. Evans was the
target of the bullies (yes, all of them) of his school. Between seventh and
eighth grade, he enrolled in his first martial arts class to learn how to
defend himself. This allowed him to not only drive the bullies away the next
school year, but put him on a path of passionately learning as many different
forms of martial arts as he could get his hands on. Through the years, he's
learned "soft forms," "hard forms," armed combat, mass
combat techniques, and even has a little mixed martial arts experience. As a
result of bouncing between the different arts in the world, he has never earned
a black belt in a single one, but his broad spectrum approach has allowed him
to get out of many a tight situation over the years. When not thinking about
what martial art to tackle next, J.T. writes fantasy novels.
