My Thac 8 entry. Its not very good because i used my moms iphone camera. But here it is.

Re: Thac 8: Ambition

Here's some constructive criticism for your next film. Please don't take it too harshly mini/smile

To start off, if you have to use an iPhone (this really applies to any camera), then try to find a way to make it stick to whatever surface you're filming on. Try using tape, or perhaps something like blu tack. That way, you wont have as many camera bumps. Also, the main character was always blurry as he talked to the camera, while the background appeared crystal clear. Although moving the minifigure backwards would make him appear smaller, it would probably solve the focusing issue. And lastly, take more pictures. That way, you can increase the framerate and make smoother animation.

Since this is your first film (or at least I think so... I didn't see any other videos on your channel), there's tons of room for improvement. Just keep working at brickfilming, and don't give up. mini/smile

Re: Thac 8: Ambition

I agree with everything said above, except for the taking more pictures part. Of course you need to take more pictures, but you also need to ease in and ease out. Here's a great tutorial Fancy Pants made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XrRJAiIepY. If you want to continue with brickfilming (which I highly suggest, it's a great hobby), I strongly suggest investing in a webcam that has a manual focus option.
