Topic: Lego Digital Designer for Brickfilming?

Have any of you ever made a brickfilm on Lego Digital Designer, and would you reccommend I give it a try?
Also, if you have made a brickfilm in LDD, do you have any tips that could make my film better?

Re: Lego Digital Designer for Brickfilming?

I have tried making a brick film in LDD once, but the thing is, you have to go onto view mode or something to take the picture, and then you have to go back to the build mode to move the figure, brick, etc. So you can try it, but it will take a lot longer then making a normal brick film.

Here's one made by MovingBricks a few months ago.

That topic also shows you how to move things in small increments.  Another way to do that besides what is shown there is moving the arm on the round thing in the top left corner.

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

Exactly that video is my favourite LDD animation. But I don't recommend it, I think it's hard.

Using a combination of LDraw and Blender would have much better results, but it'll take more time to learn.

I was actually thinking of making a short series on that exact topic.

They look pretty good @KT.

Anyway, I have decided what my first LDD project will be. I can say that it will be a comedy sitcom series, but stay tuned for more information. I am currently powering through the set building, and something may be completed in the next few weeks.
