Topic: Sci-fi brickfilm

I am currently in the early stages of pre-production fora sci-fi brickfilm that I plan to make. mini/smile  I hope to make it around ten minutes long. When I have finished scripting it I will make a casting call. I plan to have a couple of cgi scenes for in space.

So what its about. It is about a guy called Mac Reglas (supposed to sound like reckless) and another guy called Iggy Mcquo (pronounced Mckwo). Mac wants to send a thousand people to live on the newly-discovered planet Duo. The journey goes fine, but as they are approaching it, they are shot down by a UFO. They crash land on Duo, and they're computer for messaging is broken. The bad thing is, after a month without sending messages back, people from Earth would come in a rocket and save them. But no-one else knows where this planet is...

I think it's gonna be pretty awesome. Hopefully it will be good quality. I will do all the animation on Monkeyjam with a Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 camera, and I will do image editing on Photoshop elements 7 (I recently switched from GIMP) and all the video editing on Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11. I won't need complex sets, as most will be on a planet with chromakeyed backgrounds, but I will need some Alien Conquest sets. Oh yeah, they meet aliens on Duo.

Re: Sci-fi brickfilm

For some reason, the guy organising the trip forgot to tell anyone where the planet was. All they know is it is in space somewhere

Re: Sci-fi brickfilm

But why would people from Earth come and rescue them after a month of not hearing from them? If we're assuming that it's not a military organization, just two individual people gathering others to go inhabit this planet, I don't think there would be reason for anyone on Earth to send rescue ships after them. And making your main character not tell anyone where the planet is seems like a rather stupid move; not insulting you, but your main character.

Its a stupid character. But he did tell someone. He told Iggy Mcquo. Unfortunately Iggy is in hospital with a heart attack. And the reason people from earth are gonna rescue them is because this guy is VERY famous. And he's an important political figure as well.

It has been named "Lost on the Planet Duo"! I have finished the script, and will post a casting call tomorrow.

Hm. I feel like a famous and important political figure would have people trying to find out his secrets; I mean say the president wanted to go to some new country to live in, the media would be doing everything to try and find out where. I'll be interested in seeing where the story goes at the end, and what happens and whatnot. Good luck!

Re: Sci-fi brickfilm

I'm gonna rewrite some of the script. For example the ending.

If you want any help or ideas on how to end it, PM me; I was thinking about it recently, and have a few decent ideas.

Re: Sci-fi brickfilm

I'm going to put this brickfilm on hold until I get all the voices. I will work on a brickfilm about a murderer who is accused of a crime he didn't commit. He has murdered loads of other people, but not this guy!

Re: Sci-fi brickfilm

I probably won't be able to make this due to lack of time. I want to animate better brickfilms instead. And it seems no one is gonna wanna voice for it. If people do then maybe I will change my mind
