Video Annotation Jackie Chan-How to Do Action Comedy




Jackie Chan is a brilliant actor that most of his film combine the scene of action and comedy. This short video has briefly analysis the Jackie Style fighting. First of all, he always gives himself a disadvantages such as he's been handcuffed, he has a bomb in the mouth and so on, but he would always find a way to fight back with a logical reaction and those funny reaction made us laugh a lot. Secondly, He barley swing the camera to create the violent scene. Another reason I admire Jackie Chan is that he's a awesome fighting actor.We saw him jumping from the top floors, flip over the wall, falling off the ladder... He barley uses substitute for fight scene and all the wide camera angles were steady. This is very impressive as you can see the action and reaction are in the same frame. Furthermore, he's willing to spent as many time as possible to get the action right, not many director would do that. Jackie is a professional man who would correct the thing again and again till it's right. The most distinctive factor in his film is that a unique music rhythm as background music. The most inspirational sentence for me is that '' He doesn't win because of he's a better fighter, he wins because of he doesn't give up. For me, Jackie Chan is the best action comedy actor in the world, I respect him not because his fighting skills but also his persistent.
