One heck of a stop-motion.

I remember for one of my 2D classes we had to make a short stop-motion film. The lesson was 3hrs and after a brief talk from the lecturer abt the day's work we started shooting the stop-motion films. And our lead actors are actually LEGO figures...

My lecturer had gotten those Legos and we were to think of a story for those characters...we were allowed to roam around campus for the shoot...i remember being very thrilled for this mini-project cos there's 'shooting' to do...i love shooting stuff...

It was not until we actually started arranging the figures and arranging their actions that i realise how tedious the work can be. If u want it to be smoother u would have to shoot more pics, and that means more work in the editing department later...and every place the figures steps on have to be precise so that it looks okay...even tho it was tedious, i loved every minute of it...

I remember we did our guy being eaten by a shark for not obeying the beach rules. LOL.

We rushed back to edit it and in the end every group's work was displayed in the class...by the end of the lesson i was kinda high from all that work...having done the thing myself i knew how much effort and time was spent to make a stop-motion film that doesn't last for a minute...and it took us 2hrs+ to devise the story and shoot it...2hrs for a 30second film.





Now. Here comes the main point.






I saw this on youtube just now. Its another Lego stop-motion film. Mind you, it is almost 14mins long. I really salute the ppl who made this. To set the pace together with the music. Requires so much time and effort...ppl, give this video a watch....especially my classmates...cos we all did the legos rite guys? Heheheh....ENJOY THE SHOW!!!
