Garry's Mod filming techniques

[rockslide26]

My friend and I are making a school project on World War 2 in gmod. We were planning to do:
A scene in the beginning with a narrator and that boring stuff we call facts
A scene where Germans (metro police) and Americans (rebels) have a quite silly slap fight A la half life full life consequences: free man
A scene of the victorious Americans cheering and doing stupid stuff like falling off buildings while soldiers march in the street below

How would we go about using camera placement? And how could we get rag dolls to slap each other/march? My friend is doing the video and I am editing, so I made this topic on behalf of him. Please no dumb ass answers/lmgtfy links. (This must be filmed in single player)

1. Put thrusters on 10000 on ragdoll's arms
2. Make thrusters invisable
3. ???
4. profit

Okay, but the marching will be tricky as hell

Either get bots and use commands to move them or find out how to make ragdolls look like they are walking.
On the thrusters make sure it has no sounds and no effect.

My friend isn't going to record sound, we will just have some brass march music or some stuff like that. We did not want to hear the constant bumping of rag dolls.
