Hang on, what? You [b]deliberately[/b] used a lower framerate?! If you're capable of filming at 16fps, then why didn't you. If you truly wanted to make a tribute to MJ, wouldn't you want to make a good tribute to MJ?

Anyway, the actual film wasn't particularly good. The animation was choppy, the set sparse and it wasn't particularly well synced to the music. As other's have mentioned, the guy kept on jumping around making it look like a series of tests. I would have much preferred a short but well animated piece of film.

Wow that sounded harsh, but that's just my opinion]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[[quote=Brickcellent]Your fairly new so I won't be so hard, but, there's no point saying it's excellent when it's not (no offense).
The quality of animation was quite poor.
As max said, it was more of a test. The way he teleported one place to another was quite off-putting,
along with the framerate. Take more pictures when you're animating. Alot of the animation was pictures backwards and the video was repeated.
You didn't have to finish the whole song with animation.
You could of just cut it and faded it out.
Overall it was alright.
Just take more pictures and you'll be fine.

Thanks. I deliberately used a dodgey frame rate to give it more of a jerky feel. If you go onto my youtube account and watch my more recent videos you'll see that as I am now using 16 FPS. Also if  I hadn't repeated the video I would have had about one chorus in length. I really did a bit of a rush job with it as it only took 1-1 1/2 hours.

			<description><![CDATA[You double-posted, please don't. Also, try not to describe yourself as "Awesome", as it can be quite annoying, and is a habit you shall soon grow out of when you spend more time on this site. But, you are new, so that's okay. I'm just trying to help you out a bit.

As for the video, the only part of Michael Jackson's [i]Thriller[/i] that was in it, was the music, which didn't match the dance frames themself.  So this does belong in [url=http://www.bricksinmotion.com/forums/forum/4/wips-and-tests/][b]WIPs and Tests[/b][/url]. I also found that the video was too repetitive, along with the poor quality and framerate. But again, you are new, so you will soon improve, of course.]]></description>

I wanted to see what I could do with just one minifigure and no props really, which is why I didn't use any other people. But if I ever do something like this again the I will use more people.]]></description>
