A couple months ago I was making a film called "The Great Artist". When I took a little bit over 1000 frames I tried to preview it, a message popped up saying it's corrupt. I was so mad I didn't want to brickfilm anymore. But after a couple days I got over it and started making films again.

I remember when I was editing for BRAWL 2008 and I had just finished and was about to export - then the editing file became corrupt and I had to re-edit the whole thing again in less than 4 hours. I vowed never to use Pinnacle Studio again.

Its 2011, and I've only just replaced it with Sony Vegas.

What I love about Mr Socially Impaired is that if the set is bumped or if something goes terribly wrong, I can try to adjust it and then carry on. In any serious project, I would have to completely re-shoot that shot....

for thac8, i accidentally set the camera on auto (i have no idea why)
needless to say, there was a lot of light flicker.  at the beginning, i started manually correcting each frame in photoshop with the curves adjustment but then (obviously) i ran out of time.

I once stupidly wrote an entire script without saving it.

I left to get a drink.

Came back, and my little brother had closed it without saving it to look at pictures of cars on Google. -_-

Another time when I was still into claymation, I was half way through animating a scene when I knocked a lamp onto one of the figures. His face got partially squashed and melted.

I spent around 4 hours making just the face of that figure.

Google Docs!
Autosaves!

Man, I hate it when I'm brickfilming for like 4 hours and I get 30 seconds of footage.

3 hours and 30 seconds? In a scene of Viva La Vida, I spent 3 hours animating 2 seconds.

Are you serious?

   

Brickyman is our resident troll.

President troll more like. Generally I spend the best part of 4 hours getting 8 or 9 seconds. If their good, then I'm fairly pleased with what I've done with my time.
