Conheço Mestre Leonardo Reis a mais de uma década, e um de nossos contatos mais interessantes. Foi quando ele gentilmente me emprestou um pouco conhecido remake de "Golden Axe"(foto) em meados dos anos 2000. "Golden Axe" , sucesso de 1989 dos Arcades, veio no embalo do filme de 1982 baseado na obra de Robert E. Howard: "Conan, o Bárbaro". Foi naquele momento , que pela primeira vez descobri o gosto do Mestre Leonardo Reis por fantasia reunindo dragões , espadas e todo esse mundo.
I've known Mestre Leonardo Reis for more than a decade, and one of our most interesting contacts. It was when he kindly lent me a little-known remake of "Golden Axe" (photo) in the mid-2000s. "Golden Axe"(1989)was a hit of the Arcades, came in the throes of the 1982 film based on the work of Robert E. Howard : "Conan the Barbarian". It was at that moment that for the first time I discovered Master Leonardo Reis's taste for fantasy gathering dragons, swords, and the whole world of fantasy.
Inspirado por seu irmão quando era ainda muito jovem, o autor de "Dragões da Tempestade", escrevia redações muito criativas e elogiadas por sua professora e escola.Mais tarde o autor tomaria contato com um anúncio sobre um concurso da Amazon para roteiros de cinema .
O fato de estar desanimado com a incapacidade dos filmes de cinema gerarem alguma conexão emocional consigo,o ajudou a tomar a decisão de colocar suas ideias no papel.
Inspired by his brother when he was still very young, the author of "Storm Dragons" wrote very creative essays and was praised by his teacher and school. Later the author would contact an advertisement about an Amazon contest for movie scripts.
The fact that he was discouraged by the inability of movies to generate an emotional connection with him helped him make the decision to put his ideas on paper.
Sua maior motivação ainda asism ,foi assumir o desafio de mostrar aos seus filhos que com muita dedicação, empenho e colocando de verdade o coraçãoem algo. É possível alcançar um determinado nível de excelência e realizar um trabalho muito bem feito.
Ele não ganhou o concurso na Amazon naquela época, mas conseguiu ganhar alguns outros e conquistou posições de destaque em uns outros 30 ao redor do mundo. Lá também conheceu vários outros roteiristas (curiosamente dois deles tinham praticado Ving Tsun assim como ele) e as trocas de críticas e análises com eles renderam, mais que o título de "Top Reviewer", muito aprendizado.
His biggest motivation yet was to take up the challenge of showing his children that with a lot of dedication, commitment and really putting ones heart in something. You can achieve a certain level of excellence and do a well done piece of work.
He did not win the contest on Amazon at that time, but managed to win a few others and gained prominent positions in another 30 around the world. There he also met several other writers (interestingly two of them had practiced Ving Tsun as well as him), and the exchanges of criticism and analysis with them yielded, much more than the title of "Top Reviewer", much learning.

Em sua jornada de aperfeiçoamento, o autor tomou a revisão de outro Mestre de Ving Tsun, Felipe Soares, que leu a versão em inglês, como determinante para que executasse uma mudança importante a qual estava relutante em fazer.
Empolgado, o autor preparou o volume 1 de 6 de uma Graphic Novel e agora uma versão adaptada em livro.
Quem ler a obra vai perceber que tem um formato diferente, algo que o autor chama de "Cinelivro". É uma leitura dinâmica com o intuito de fazer o leitor assistir um filme com os olhos de sua mente com um final inesperado!

On his journey as an author, the author took over the review of another Ving Tsun Master, Felipe Soares, who read the English version as the determining factor for a major change he was reluctant to make.
Excited, the author has prepared a volume 1 of 6 of a Graphic Novel and now a version adapted in book.
Whoever reads the work will realize that it has a different format, something that the author calls "Cine-Book". It is a dynamic reading to make the reader watch a movie with the eyes of his mind with an unexpected end!
As a bonus, Ving Tsun practitioners will be able to notice common concepts such as the Master-disciple relationship, kung-fu brotherhood, and the obvious female character, with a kind of Baat Jam Do in her hands, as well as other elements.
