Official Review Thread for LEGO Twister
Background Info:
This is a short Brickfilm of two LEGO men, or Minifigs, playing the Twister game. It was quite a challenge to animate, as Minifigs have very limited movements. I had to use modeling clay to extent the arms and legs for a few awkward postions.

pretty good film! It must have been pretty hard to put the minifigs in to those positions! |

Oh, yes. That was one of the hardest 14 seconds I've animated. Really fun, but hard.
TheTay wrote: | you need to show me how to put those minifigs like that, isaac | Two words: modeling clay. I had to rip the arms off (and legs for a few frames, I think) and extend them with oil-based Plasticine type clay. It was hard to get the clay to stay put, and the arms fell off several times during animation. It probably would have been a good idea to put some thin wire inside the arms to help keep the positions. It turned out okay, though. I think one of the Minifigs still has his clay arms, I try to find it and post some more detailed pics.
Thanks for the comments!  |

OK, I'll do that next time we come over (don't let me forget! ). Before I can help you get started, though, you need to clear a good sized space on your computer desk (we're going to need to stay hooked up to the computer). I am 99% positive you have a really good camera for brickfilming. K4's getting started, too, so maybe we can all be working on different parts of the 52 Car Pile-Up movie at the same time. |

The only problem would be all the different light in the film. Also, my webcam doesn't get superb quality, in fact, it's about the cheapest type you can get! I could use an actual digital camera, but it has to save directly to the computer, and I've only managed to take 984 pics on it before its batteries failed, and I had to pop them in for an overnight recharge. Still... |

Er... how's that again? According to the small and deeply boring book called English and You, that sentence has a 5% chance of being correct, let alone be coherent. |
