Costumes, Sword fighting and Weapon making help please?

Question by Kittymeow: Costumes, Sword fighting and Weapon making help please?
(This has multiple questions I would love if you answered all but I’d love it more if you answered in the ones you knew the most about. Thank you!)

Hey there,
I have a friend who wants to learn sword fighting for a movie. (It’s homemade) In the script, she wrote that she had 2 swords to wield. She doesn’t even know how to use 1 let alone 2. She’s a slow learner so I need some tricks, tips and techniques on how to sword fight either 1 or dual. For practice, we are using bamboo sticks. I’ve already tried teaching her once and it was pretty difficult so it needs to be pretty simple for right now. We also can’t afford lessons.

For my part, I have multiple weapons. A sword, a dagger, a knife, and shurikens. I would love to know how to make shurikens (preferably not out of metal, something less deadly) and how to use them.

Costumes are another thing. If anyone has anything ranging from a few tips and directions to patterns-or more!- they would help so much!

Thank you SO much for answering! Your help is much appreciated!

This has to do with LARP’ing, not martial arts.
