I would be intrested to know some of the technical details as well. I just
received the LEGO Studios (yes it is shipping from S@H now) but can't use it
on my Windows 2000 computer despite what the catalog description claims. Tech
support says it will only work on Win98SE and the new Win ME.
What camera and software did you use? Does your 15 months include all of the
preproduction set building, etc., or just actual filming and editing? The
trailer is 1 min 30 sec. How long is the final movie going to be? The AVI
file which I downloaded was 4+ MB of data and the quality was very poor. I'm
wondering if the picture quality/size issue is a result of the format you
choose for your movie. The sample movies on the http://www.lego.com/studios
web site are about this length and about his same file size but are much
better quality. LEGO Studios uses quicktime movie file format.

I would think this would take qite a lot of planning for a consistency of
image size, quality, lighting, etc. if the final product is to look good.

I would cross-post this to a movie making group but I don't think one exists
yet. ;)
