well… you know what I mean…
The other day me and the TB were watching YouTube videos (TB is quite a fan of a few videos you can see around there) and we found some LEGO stop Motion super productions. Since that day we’ve been entertaining the idea of doing something like that.
Now… I might know my way around film making and am OK with editing stuff (although this is far from me speciality) and I am not stranger to the stop motion concept – I mean it has to be at least a bit similar to animating using flash, right??? WRONG!!!!
You have NO IDEA about the amount of patience you need to get the whole thing into place. What with the whole moving the characters frame by frame, positioning of the camera and light, managing your crew (specially if your crew consists of a hyperactive 5 year old) then photographing frame after frame… If you know me you will know that I believe patience is an incredible virtue but that patience is NOT a virtue I have to spare…
The script is simple: A group of lego clone troopers (let’s call them red squad) attempts to rescue the princess from the giant sleeping boy in the second floor of the house and return to the trooper carrier… In theory that as a simple idea, that would not take long at all to finish… in a more practical scale I am starting to believe I should scale down the thing… A LOT!!! hehehehe
Once you watch the clip I’ve made to test frame rate you will see what I mean with that… That was just a test I glued together… but now taking a look at it, the thing is scarring me shitless…
It took me between 4pm and 2am to do what you are going to see bellow… Well… I admit the project is ambitious… but hey… hehehehe
Hope you enjoy!!! (Any ideas… comments… etc etc etc… PLEASE COMMENT!!!

You have got to be kidding!!!
Apparently the TFL’s bosses have something against Kelly Brook’s boobs. The posters for the new Cast of of the play Calendar Girls featuring the actress’ 32E cleavage covered by cherry-topped pastries had to be re-drawn 3 times because the buns she is holding weren’t big enough to “cover her modesty”.
Forget the fact that in every other promotional picture that can be found all over the place (including at the escalators of a few tube stations) smaller buns can be seen in the same pose.
When asked by the London Lite about the poster a TFL spokesman said they just asked that “a few tweaks” were made to it to ensure their ad complide with their [TFL] police.
Here between you and me… the “few tweaks” only made it look as if she’s splatted the buns on her boobs… yum yum… (LOL)
