I recently did a little dive into water effects.

I personally use foil, dough and lubricant at the moment. Here a little video of my process:

These work well for me, as I am also working on non-brick-projects right now and implement the techniques between projects. I also previously used transparent lego bricks. Any other ideas?:)]]></summary>

Hello, this is my second brickfilm collaboration, and the first that I will be continuing.
This project is going to be a stop motion collaboration where each collaborator will be assigned to their own character, I am not sure if this will be a big movie or a series, but each person decides their character's role, if they die or not, how they die, and we will all work on the script on a shared document.  We will also help with animation, set design, and other such things.
This is the discord where we will talk about the project, [url]https://discord.gg/cyX4dUbH[/url]
But don't be afraid to know your peers, you can also share about your projects, plans, and other stuff.
Let's make this a community, lets make this happen, thank you.]]></summary>

			<link rel="alternate" href="https://bricksinmotion.com/forums/topic/29491/whats-the-best-stopmotion-software-for-pc/new/posts/"/>
			<summary type="html"><![CDATA[Hi everyone! I'm wondering what kind of stop-motion program everyone's using. DragonFrame is pretty expensive for me so I've been looking for a cheaper alternative. I've tried a bunch of (free) programs over the years (MonkeyJam, JellyCam, Stop-motion Studio) but I'm not really satisfied with any of them. I'd love to have audio support to animate to dialogue, WebCam support, to be able to change framerate, and of course, onion skinning. Is there anything that's cheap and can do all these things or do I need DragonFrame?

Any suggestion is appreciated! Thank you so much in advance!]]></summary>

			<summary type="html"><![CDATA[I'm looking for a low-budget solution. I've got a roll of green paper as a greenscreen (for now) and looking for a way to create a temporary frame or similar to support it, noting that it's normally rolled up so is prone to roll up if not properly held in place. Suggestions? Space is a limitation so needs to be something that can be deconstructed after.

[url=https://discord.gg/5D7Txt]Discord server[/url]

Hi! Clutch Powers rebuilt is a community project to re-create the cherished film “Lego: The Adventures of Clutch Powers” entirely in stop motion animation. I’ve divided the movie up into convenient 4-minute approx chunks. If you are interested in animating one of them, DM me and I will send you the clip from the original film so that you can recreate it! 
Clips are open to artistic license, so feel free to get creative with it! And don’t worry if your minifigures and sets don’t match the movie exactly, we’re not trying to be perfect!
When you are finished your clip, email it to me at legoawesomepants@gmail.com, either as a video file or an unlisted YouTube video. 

Ideally all the clips would be submitted to me by may 2019. Have fun and be creative!

The clips are as follows:

Finding Crystals, Rock Monster Pursuit *taken by Joshua Nelson*
Clutch Powers Driving
Lego HQ mission brief *taken by banana brick productions*
Arty *taken by slotborg*
Spaceflight to prison planet *taken by brick block animations*
Getting inside the building
Mallock’s escape and building a new ship
Landing on Ashlar *taken by Arminanimator*
Intro to Mallock *Taken by Seza*
Skeletons attempt to capture Clutch *taken by OllieRocks*
Intro to Hogarth
Building the battle cart *taken by kerloft*
Intro to Prince Veron
Intro to Lofar finishing battle cart and the plan
The battle begins
Confronting mallock and capture and skeleton charge
Battle rages and cart is destroyed and Hog brings Mallock the sword
Build on each other
The fight goes on
The final battle
Everyone is happy

Thanks in advance to everyone who participates!]]></summary>
