Hello everyone,

I guess it's time to announce that I'm making a feature length movie with LEGO
studios.  This will be a huge project and should be quite interesting when
finished.  The movie wil take place in a D&D/medieval fantasy type setting.
You can see pics of some of the sets and behind the scenes shots here:

This is turning out to be a lot of fun to make.  I have gotten a few people
that are interested in providing voice acting for the film, but nothing is
finalized yet.  If you would like to lend a voice, even a single line to the
film, please email me.

Until then, happy building!

You might try a power focus for your camera. I found it very difficult to
set the focus from a distance from the computer. Check this out.

That looks like a great idea.  However, I have almost none of those parts. :(

I'm about to go out for New Year's, but I'll definately take some shots of it
tommorrow.

The interesting thing about that ship is that it is built COMPLETELY upside
down and sideways.  There are no studs faceing up on the ship except for the
very top crow's nest.

Badging these as "publicity stills" is a great idea. Very effective.

I liked your use of the tailgate part for shutters.

Thought the ship sails were a bit bizzare, though, do you have any prototype
for that?

I look forward to hearing more about this project.

I have to give you 2 thumbs up for use of those droid parts on the pier!!! I just
might have to steal ^H^H^H^H^H borrow that idea :)

Can't wait to see the movie! looks like it's going to be pretty interesting! I'm
thinking it might be worth it to pick up on of those Movie Maker kits, gives a
whole new meaning to play!

Have you thought about maybe having cameo appearances by Castle World
sig-figs?  If the balladeer wanted to, he/she could lend a voice and the
minifig could be a character in the story.  If not, you could just place the
character in the background during the action.  Hey, it's an idea.  Good or
bad, I don't know.

Hey,

I really don't know a whole lot about CW, to be honest, though I love some of
the creations.  that sounds like a perfect idea though, as there are many, many
scenes left to film.

The only problem I forsee is people being really attached to their characters
and not liking how I make them behave. :)

By Feature length you do mean full fetaur length (ie at least 90 miniutes)
as opposed to animation specials (ussaly 30 mins).

Look at some of the earlier stuff done by Nick Park- They took ages to do
even for 30 miniutes and that was with the backup of the full Ardman team!!

However I wish you the bast of luck..

Are you planning to release the movie commericaly?()In which case TLC/TLG
might want to have a word with you first..)

<Drum Clash follwed by deep choir over music...>

on the voice acting part..( Altohugh I suugest that you get the Major AFOL's
on baord in particular the girl on .castle (HTH Can't remember her name!!)

However I might be able to advise on other technical matters from the point
of view tjhat I know what I like!!

(side note to Todd. PLEASE!!! PLEASE can we have a Studios hireachy for
covering Animated Lego(R) films and elated issues?. Also suggest that
Brickshlf makes space for a video archive...)

Of course if there was a place to submit scripts I'd be sure to put up a few
ideas I had!!.
