Short Student Documentary on Knights Mêlée

We were approached via email by a couple of journalism students about two weeks ago, asking if they could do a short film on Knights Melee for a project of theirs, and here is the result:

(Please excuse the absolutely terrible display of rapier fighting, its what happens when you both are to prone to blade grabbing) :oops:

Awesome, man. That was a great video about what y'all have going on down there.

This can well and properly be divided into three main parts, namely the beginning, the middle, and the end.

Like I've said before, Knight's Melee is a HEMA machine. I wish we could clone your group all across the country. Great job Jon & go MFFG.

Well, that cloning notion is what I'm going to try to do next year at some of the other universities in Florida.

I thought that was very well done actually, the fighting was clearly with intent and the explanations very lucid and compelling. Excellent work UCF!
