Warning; this one is a little bit fuzzy.

Well, I was asked if a jian was used similar to a rapier, and even though I had already answered the question, I figured it would be better to just show some basic moves with it so that you guys can get an idea.  I have to warn you right off the bat, I'm no master at this.  But I think you guys should more or less get the gist of this.  I should point out that the liao, or lift technique I show is exaggerated a bit in order to give you guys an idea of it's movement.  Usually it doesn't go quite that high.

Comments, suggestions, and general mocking of my performance are of course welcome.

By the way, you may want to turn this up.
