Three Duels (Motion), The Untamed, WangXian. I may attempt a lightbuilding exercise as well.

I read somewhere that LWJ and WWX's fight in the courtyard in the Unclean Realm was the same fight as their first one in Cloud Recesses, so I figured that'd be fun to use for this exercise! It turns out that it is not exactly the same choreography, but the fights in Cloud Recesses, Unclean Realm are shot so similarly that it's easy to swap things in and out, and some shots are nearly identical. That gave me a lot of freedom to move things around.

I also realized while doing this that Wei Wuxian does not fight back until their battle in Nightless City, and he never once fights with a blade. Even though we think of their fight under the moonlight as a sword fight, it's really sword vs. scabbard.
