Hello Patrons!
I am making an upcoming episode which is ranking ✨lady armour✨ from movies and Tv shows. I’ll be soliciting suggestions from the YouTube community, BUT…
The Patreon/Nebula version of this video will be available to all patrons regardless of tier when it’s finished, and the extra content will be…lots more armour ranking.
Not just information I cut fo...

Got some messages about this article, had an opinion. Got a chance to talk about a classic fight or two. What's not to like? :)

This will show up in a few weeks on YouTube if you’re not a tiktok person!

But still, it was something of A Project. I hope you enjoy watching my adventures!

And it started life as a box of sofa offcuts and some curtains.
Wish me luck editing the video 😂

I went to a cinema! I saw a movie! It was a pretty good movie and I liked it! Boy, it's been a while since I did a relatively contemporaneous movie review. It's nice.
Mostly, gotta say, loved the fights. It is good to be able to see stuff, especially when it's so well conceived and nicely executed.
I just have one question: where did Shang Chi's dad find an iron and a washing ...

Hope you've all had a lovely summer! Have some James Bond analysis and bonus Random Fencing Stories!
2021-08-30 16:41:08 +0000 UTC View PostSO! I have a lot of questions that people have about stage combat (more than a hundred of them, in fact) and I’m going to answer as many of them as possible in a couple of hours. Or until I lose my voice anyway 😁
Patron questions are the ones I’ll answer first (after “how did you get into stage combat and how can I do that?”) so if you have a question leave it here!
Hope ...

Surprise! It's another One [INSERT ADJECTIVE HERE] Scene collaboration in time for the release of The Suicide Squad! (Not to be confused with...Suicide Squad, no 'the')
This time it's One Villainous Scene, and my topic is, naturally, Harley Quinn. Here is your ad-free bonus-content-including video, but do head over to the main playlist if you want more of this kind of thing! 2021-08-04 16:00:11 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello! It's been a while since I saw something and immediately thought, 'I'm going to write a short video about this!' but I did that thing yesterday, and it was nice.
Turns out Loki isn't as popular a topic as I thought, but I had a good time making it!
I am on holiday for the next two weeks, and the week after is Stage Combat Camp, so I may be slower to respond than usual. 2021-07-17 06:58:59 +0000 UTC View Post
It's here! I finally got Mannequin Skywalker out of the shed...and Duncan and I got to stabbing XD
The companion video is here: https://youtu.be/6XZPiWnYk8g
Enjoy!

Well, I was very much not convinced by the slash attack that took place in The Nevers episode 1, where a possibly supernatural chap slashed through a shirt, a corset and an under layer to make a neat slice in the torso skin of the main character.
So I got a fight choreographer (and karate instructor and Army Reserve officer) to try it out, with a little help from Kiss Me Deadly, who very...

Hope you enjoy this absolute nonsense, I had a ball making it (pun not originally intended but now absolutely intended).

That looks much more impressive than it felt, I have to say. Did some filming today for a video coming out in July. Went pretty well, though high heels were very much not in evidence.
2021-06-07 13:07:40 +0000 UTC View PostAka how to accidentally go viral on TikTok.
I'm also having a lot of fun making a story series over there at the moment, but I thought you all might enjoy this sneak peek at the Murder Dress.
Side note: people have actually been trying to find me on YouTube by typing 'Jill Bearup murder dress' and I'm not sure whether I should be worried or not...

A friend of mine said to me the other day, 'Jill, imagine if you went back 10 years and told yourself that in a decade you'd be making your living from videos where you stabbed corsets and kicked things in high heels'.
Just so you know, the corset video is happening this summer :D

It's my birthday in about a week and a half and I decided to celebrate by making a really dumb meme short from Tumblr circa...a couple of years ago, probably.
The crossover between people who remember this meme and people who recognise my collaborators is going to be quite small, but it entertained me and so now I share this joy with you.
For examples of the original meme:
Our survey says: yeah, probably, as long as you take appropriate skirt-dealing-with actions.
I would say this is the oddest video I've ever made but...I mean, if it is, it's not by much XD

Hey, do you remember that I teased merch at the end of my 10 year anniversary video?
Well, they’re here: WE HAVE SWORD PINS AND THEY ARE SO PRETTY LOOK!
We have a limited number of sword pins in the first run though, so if you want one, grab it while you can.
If you want one at some point, but not right now, we will re-order if they sell out, but there aren’t many in this ...
2021-04-28 20:14:26 +0000 UTC View PostHello lovely Patrons!
Today I am celebrating digging myself out of Email Purgatory. Which is to say, it took all morning and several hours over the last week, but my inbox no longer looks like it’s on fire. Hooray!
If you have good news, big or small, share it with us! (New parents: “I got sleep” definitely counts 😁)

Hello lovely Patrons! This is my super duper special (and by special I mean off topic and also over 20 minutes long) video on 15 things I've learned from ten years making videos. Technically my YouTube anniversary is in July or something, which is when I started crossposting from Blip, but...eh, April is my video making anniversary and it's been ten whole years, so.
I hope you enjoy this ...

Here's the link! Don't forget to click through to the YouTube page so you can join in the live chat if you'd like to.
And if you have any case of rapiers or stage combat related questions, drop them there!
2021-04-10 13:53:43 +0000 UTC View PostLet's have a half hour (ish) stream tomorrow and talk about case of rapiers and...other things which may relate to swords! :) If you haven't got notifications turned on, fear not, it'll be public so you can just go to youtube.com/jillbearup at the appropriate time.
And if you can't make it, I will make a post to save it here on the Patreon page, as I tend to unlist streams after 48 hours ...

Hello Patrons! Apologies for being quiet recently, there has been a lot going on, though most of it good!
I just took a three day course in case of rapiers for stage combat (four swords! Such tangling! So fun!) and so, for you, a hard to hear but hopefully interesting to watch video of one of our rehearsals. "Are you always this charming, or am I just lucky?" :D
PS: the stage is cov...

The last month has been...quite eventful, YouTube-wise. Apparently YouTube Shorts are indeed extremely broken. But I am not complaining 🤣
Welcome new Patrons. We are all glad to see you 😊
