Re: Post Your Story Ideas

Man, I really need to come up with a story, like right now.  I have no clue where to start, so, do any of you have any ideas to get me of the ground?

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

I can give you a link to a whole script I won't be using

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

What's it about?  Also I kind of worded that earlier post wrong.  I mean to say, if some one could give a theme.  I need some sort of start point.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

Hmm... What kind of genre do you want?

I might be able to think up a spark for you.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

Drama I suppose.  With a dash of adventure. mini/bigsmile

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

How about a Rip Van Winkle-like story? You know, a guy falls asleep or passes out (or gets knocked out) and he wakes up sometime in the future. A possible end twist could be that the "future" was all a dream.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

Sounds like a good idea.  I think I'll work of that.  mini/smile

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

i need to redo a project, i wrote earlier this year, but never  go around to do it...... maybe i can finish next year

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

"It was all a dream" endings are the worst.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

They've got to be the most clichéd endings ever.

I don't make Brickfilms. I trade virtual hats.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

They're the product of a writer who just lost his story.

"The world was on the brink of destruction, cataclysmic calamities were causing the human race to verge on extinction... and then I woke up."

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

This idea is a little homage to Suspiria and Rosemary's Baby, and a little redesign of an old idea of mine:

A twelve year old girl who is an active ballet dancer is given a doll after her grandmother dies. Her grandmother, who was a professional dancer died of strange, unknown causes, and was labeled insane by those around her for the end of her life. The girl, in the days following receiving the doll, begins to get strange dreams where she is being chased by the devil and is forced to sign a pact with him. She thinks their just simple nightmares until strange things begin to happen and she realizes those aren't dreams - they are actually happening.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

Oooh. I you don't make this into a brickfilm, please write more.

I don't make Brickfilms. I trade virtual hats.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

Well, it's actually an idea for a live-action project. A little more info would be the girl starts to become paranoid of her surroundings and doesn't know whether what is happening to her is ACTUALLY happening or is just some insane dream.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

heres one I thought of a wile ago. I'm pretty busy right now so I probably wont get to it for a wile and its so deep in pre-production that it almost scares me.

The Animator Is Evil!

like I said not much of a story yet but the main idea is a guy is in paradise but then the animator turns it into a desert island so the guy puts a note in a bottle and http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p84/UberSocks/39.gif my mind goes blank.
generally its the animator vs. the Minifigures
I like the general idea and hope I get to an animation like this at some point. mini/bigsmile
though the story somehow sounds familiar.... mini/confused

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

I was just wondering. Has anyone ever thought of making a documentary about brickfilms? I just thought it might be a cool thing to do sometime. You know, talk about the history of the medium, interview a few filmers, go through the process of making them, all  that stuff.

So what do you guys think?

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

It would be interesting to see the history of Brickfilming. not that theres much of it. mini/tongue
If you wanted to here's the first Brickfilm.

Re: Post Your Story Ideas

nah I'm not really talking about the animator makes the guy then destroys it kind of thing.
I was thinking more of a large scale battle type thing.
