Tip on Movie Watching

     For some reason, the normal view in fullscreen button does not work, so here's your workaround: To view fullscreen, click on the YouTube logo (which will have a pop-up text saying "watch on YouTube"). This is right above the fullscreen button that you would usually use. Thanks!

Tab

 If you come to this film, looking for an incredible script, intricate plot, and clever lines... you will be disappointed. That was not the intent of this film. This was made as an art expression, and should be treated as such. And yes... included is a tribute to Line Rider.

Almost Done! Hold the Press!

All of the 2,500 + pictures have been taken and compiled. The images are rendered, and all that remains is adding the music and uploading! Expect an update soon (today!)...

The Countdown Begins!

Here is the official number of pictures until completion: 1,152. It may seem like it's a lot... because it is. But, the good news is, I have 1,162 done! I'm over the crest of the hill...

I caved in...

After much deliberation, I finally had to purchase a new video editor program. Fortunately, it wasn't too expensive, and the good news is: this movie will actually get finished! The film will be done in the next couple of weeks (maybe sooner), so stay tuned for updates and the release!

Films are up!

A few selected movies have been loaded onto the Films page, so you no longer need to search YouTube for them. More to be added later!

Starting Today!

Now that we're in our new home, I'm finally ready to start some stop-motion work... and there's no better time to buckle down and do it than now. I'll be experimenting with some different mediums this summer, so be get ready for a different look for some of my work!

Soon to return!

Well after a long hiatus, filming should resume in June. I just received a new camera, have a demo of a program I am trying, and a script... ready to go!!! Once we move to Colorado, I should be able to set up shop and get started. In the mean time, I will try again to post my videos to the site, instead of linking to YouTube. Keep your eyes peeled!

Software evaluation in progress...

Right now, I'm evaluating my current Brickfilm software. For the next few months, I will be working on some animation tests, so there may not be too many new films released. For upcoming films, I just ordered new pieces from the Bricks in Motion contest prize money. Hopefully they will come soon...

Boot Hill

The moment you've all been waiting for...

This is the link to the movie I have been working on 

this summer, a Western Brickfilm "Boot Hill".

Soundtrack is in the works

I'm working on the soundtrack and audio, so it should be only a few more days before Boot Hill's release...

Boot Hill- only a few scenes left!

 School has started, but that does not mean filming has stopped. I have only a couple scenes left to shoot for my western brickfilm: "Boot Hill".  For this film, there won't be a lot of post-filming editing. I have been able to do a large chunk of it already, working with the timing of each scene once it has been completed. The biggest part of production left is the audio. So... time to get back to work.

Bricks in Motion Contest Results

Well the results are in, and the survey says... 19th place. So, I was in the top 20 of an International event, with a film I put together in two weeks. It was fun, and left room to improve for next year. Here's the official review:


"The Quest for the Bricks -- A pretty cool concept, though the execution leaves room for improvement.  The idea of a continuous shot was nice, and the effect of objects moving past the minifigure was creative.  Good luck with your future projects!" 

Current Project

My latest film that I'm working on is a western, "Boot Hill". There is a trailer (Boot Hill Trailer) up and ready to view. I am still in the animating process, and the script keeps changing, but there is a chance that it may be finished by the 22nd.

Results Tonight!

Sorry the video wasn't able to load onto the page, but the link in the previous post will work.
Contest results will be posted tonight.
