			<content type="html"><![CDATA[First off, get the lighting right. Too low of lighting will not allow you to up the contrast without it turning too dark. Too much light will wash everything out. Second, use your editing software. I like to turn the color saturation down just a tad, and then up the contrast a bit. Really makes the animation look professional. However play with it a bit, and make sure it suits the mood of your film. (Bright colors usually don't look great in a gritty war film.)]]></content>

Yeah, it's not impossible, but it does cause major problems. (Watch any of our films haha...) Anyways, many people color correct and use various lighting and camera techiques.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[DO NOT BRICKFILM WITHOUT REMOTE SHUTTER! If your camera has the option, hook it up to the computer with a USB port, install the remote shutter software, and get a capture program like Helium Frog. That's what I would do (if your camera has the option.)]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Well I might as well give you a total list of my productions, I am using a Nikon coolpix 880 (YES I KNOW THE CAMERA IS TEN YEARS OLD) Although it does not have high def, the quality of it is EXTREMELY professional grade. I am using a basic Targus tripod, and the software I use is AnimatorDV +Simple (Freeware), then I edit frames with photo-shop, and after its compiled to a video, I go further to edit with Sony Vegas Pro 9, although I am still learning the ropes of this program. I know you may be wondering, no I do not use Animator to capture the frames, I capture my frames separately on the camera then import the pictures. I am wondering which would be better though, but do not want to start capturing with Animator until I have enough money saved up and buy a Mac G5.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Usually it's a mixture between all those things, camera clarity, good lights and yes, to a certain extent, software. A lot of it is also done in post-production, through colour correction and grading. Most editing and after effect programs can decently provide these things. May I ask what software you currently use...?]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[When I watch brick films, I notice that some are more vivid in color then others, some look washed out, others like "Natural" and others look..well just stunning in color. I was wondering, does this have anything to do with their camera? software? or lights? I would like to achieve the deep vivid color look in my videos and would like to know anything that can help with this. Thank you.]]></content>
