There is nothing more tragic than seeing your family torn apart by something a simple as a pack of wolves.
RE: fighting
Good, but no cinematic. Your bent knees and the way you walk isn't great (even though it seems to be part of technique) and yourspare hands should be doing something else...maybe a sheild?

yeah you need quick shots, rapidly changing. Fighting in real life is completly different from fighting in films, as I'm sure you know. Fighting in films is often a very slow place, especially if you have only one camera. You have to stop, film one shot, then another and so on. Maybe a close up of blades clashing.

First:
The fight had a single angle and wasn't threatening in the slightest. You never cut a persons throught with a sword, u cut the whole head off, you may want to take up a class or something.
Fight 2:
Try hit each other rather then just slaping swords. It looks more like a fencing video rather then a fight. You never get sliced through the torso and come back for more. There is no blood (it needs to spray slightly).
Fight 3:
Buy a tripod and learn about camera angles.
As Jperson said, you need to have really rapid shots, not 30 second ones. There needs to be more blood. Learn about actually sword fighting. Maybe actually have a fight oneday (fist fight... but not too dangerous that you die) to learn about suspence. Watch kill bill and learn how they do sword fights.
Try fights over and over again (but dont post them all on here until u try ur a** off and know that it looks significantly better).

No intent to harm at all. You are fighting what we say in the trade "air". Your fighters also need to show confidence in their moves and approach. Keep up the good work though
