When we shot the photographs for the book, we made the decision to shoot them in real time, as we wanted to express the movement and dynamism that exists in a real life conflict. This process involve photographing techniques demonstrated at full pace, and full force, over and over again, and then selecting individual photographs from the over 10,000 that we took, to get “snapshot” moments that illustrated a particular part of the technique. None of the photos you see in the book were staged, or performed statically. As painful and as time consuming as this process was, I believe it gives a much better idea of what violence and the responses to it look like, as well as allowing you to have faith and conviction that the techniques described actually work.

We also made the decision to try to shoot, where possible, in the situations/scenarios where certain assaults and threats are likely to occur, e.g., at ATMs, in bars, etc. This will help you visualize the techniques and the attacks more clearly, and give a more realistic context to them.
