    The Lego army prepares for war. =Description

    I made this video almost an enitre year before this post.
    My stop-motion skillz have improved since then.

    I thought people would enjoy this because the main track is from Halo, and there are some obvious parallels.

    Lol, so does that mean it was good? It took a few afternoons of filming to make last summer.
    Why did you send me a friend request though?

    Wow, you did a nice job on it. Some of the laser blasts went to slow, so I would have used less frames or upped the frame rate. Good job though. May I ask what you used to make this movie. Like movie editing software, capture device (still camera or camcorder), and anything else.

    Thanks, I used a Cannon Powershot S1 IS to take the frames, and then edited and re-arranged them in Windows Movie Maker.

    That was 8 FPS, I now use 16, but it takes longer and is more work.
    I also now use lighting with my gunshots to make them glow, no after-effects. Lazer pointers light up translucent lego peices like fire!

    I've seen this before on Youtube, I think it is a very well made stop-motion video! :D

    I honestly thought that was really good. The way you moved the bodies like real people was perfect. And I noticed you had Socom FTB: 2. That game was so addicting. Anyway, + Rep for your nice movie.
