Sifu Kisu Back in Action for Legend of Korra, Plus Others
Sifu Kisu (Martial Arts Consultant) Is back in Action for Legend of Korra
Good news for All Avatar The Last Airbender fans! Sifu Kisu, the original Martial Artist consultant that helped produce the stunning life-like action scenes in Avatar is back in action for the new Avatar The Legend of Korra series. Hopefully this means that the Martial Arts will be up to the same exceptional quality that Avatar The Last Airbender had.
We’ve also discovered that other original creators of the original Avatar are back on board for the new project, including JM Animation (As you could probably tell by the AMAZING promo art done for Avatar The Legend of Korra). Ian Graham (Storyboard Artist), Fiery Monk (another storyboard artist who unfortunately wont be able to make it for this project) tipped Avatar fans off with the information.
Other creative people coming back:” Joaquim Dos Santos, and others from the original series.
I also hope Manny Rodriguez who came up with Tophs’ Martial Art style is back on the team as well.
Sounds exciting to have the team back together again, and i’m sure there is some new-comers as well (Voice Actors, Artists, etc..) Anticipation for the new Avatar Series is certainly building!
**Update** I almost Forgot to Mention, Dee Bradley Baker is currently the only confirmed Voice Actor for Avatar The Legend of Korra, Dee Bradley Baker was the “Voice” of Momo, Appa, and pretty much every animal you heard in Avatar The Last Airbender, See here: Forum Thread on Latest Breaking Korra News
