Re: Trainspotting

Being totally honest, I had no idea what was going on. There was a guy in an underground train station with a camera and he had a clone for some reason. The clone would walk around while the main guy just sat there... That and the title screen was 20 seconds long, which is 15 too many (minimum).

2/5

Re: Trainspotting

I didn't really understand either, but it was okay I guess. I recommend using a lower framrate and fixing those camera bumps though.

Spoiler (click to read)

Well, that guy sitting in there couldn't be seen in photos...who is he?

You should try to make more understandable. I understood that, but what's the rest of the story? It's interesting, but you can't just make a whole movie with this. You should develope, make something more around the concept. Also, you could have out some music, because there's too much silence in there. It's an okay film, next time you should work more on it mini/wink.
One question: did you take the "real photos"?

Re: Trainspotting

Yeah I took the real photographs, the guy sitting there isn't in the photos because he's the guy taking them. It was meant to be like a waiting montage between photographs.

Re: Trainspotting

I'm sorry to say, but I have to agree with the other guys on this. I got a bit stumped when there was a duplicate of him sitting down, but then again, apart from that it wasn't that hard to understand. A guy is trains-spotting. The animation was quite good, though there wasn't much of it. I suggest turning it down a bit and put more.

Re: Trainspotting

Animation was like 15fps accidentally turned up to 24fps, it looked like the other guy was just happy to sit there and not take any pictures. The sudden silence at 0:31 is really bad editing, you could have showed the train was there by having a light go past the set or something, and actually used that sound effect when a train went past. You do realise you can cut down sounds and move them around, right? These would have been very easy to do, even in Moviemaker. It would've been better if in the picture it was made of lego, it could've been a tottally different set, but the message would have been communicated a lot better, as the real world pictures didn't look like the same place. But this was honestly, poorly executed, and not much would have to be done to make it a much, much better film.

Sorry if I offended you, I am trying to be constructive.

Re: Trainspotting

Which subway was that?

And I would have liked if there had been at least one picture where you build the same subway in lego. The photos themeselfes should stay like they are, but perhaps a picture of how he shoots it, with all lego.
