First Lego Stop Motion Video!


The Door

Today I made my first Lego Stop Motion video! "The Door" is my version of a roleplaying adventure I witnessed several years ago. One of the players was thrown into jail. While there, he met a crazy old man who claimed he could get out. The old man drew a picture of a door on the wall of the cell, then told the player to run at it as fast as he could while believing it would work. The player refused, then went to sleep. When he woke up, the old man was gone. So the player decided to run at the door like the old man said. The only problem was that he didn't believe. And so the door didn't work.

I've wanted to try making a stop motion video using Lego for awhile now. So I thought this would be the perfect short vignette for my first one.

It took several hours to make and is only about 30 seconds long. I did all of the voices using the sound recording equipment on my computer. I also had to reshoot the ending because I didn't like what I originally had.

Do check out the video and let me know what you think!
