Topic: My newest lego scene a remake of star trek with the actual voices.

This Lego scene is based from the beginning scene of the episode, In the Pale Moonlight which is one of many Star Trek series, I animated the scene in Lego and fixed the voices to the parts, if you have seen it, tell me if you see a resemblance or if its close to the actual scene. Please tell me what you though of it and were I may or may not need to improve, and of course what you enjoyed about it, It's always nice to hear something good from the viewers!

I'm counting on you guys!

Re: My newest lego scene a remake of star trek with the actual voices.

It was good. The camera angle was a good angle, but for a single 1 minute long shot, it gets a bit uninteresting and a simple arrangement of shots would be beneficial, just some difference to help keep the crowd entertained. Also, a minor but distracting part of the film was how the background was visible on the right. Also, the frame rate was a bit odd; at some parts it looked nice and smooth, but at others it was very low. However, the audio was very, very nice. The atmospheric music was very nice. Good job.

Re: My newest lego scene a remake of star trek with the actual voices.

Hey there Caveman Incorporated, thanks for your nice and comforting review,

I do agree with you, being a minute and only being one shot as said, can be distracting and uninteresting for the viewer, however it was intended this way, as it was actually how the captain was in the actual star trek for this exact scene, so that was one of the reasons for this.

What did you mean by the background visable on the right? Do you speak of the bricks that weren't full built were you could see past the blue? If so it was actually mean't to be an entry for the captain to leave and come in, however I don't think that was mean't to be visable, I'll fix that for next time, thanks for that, nice catch!

the frame rate, was actually 15 FPS the whole time, the thing were you may find it odd is the extended frames at different parts, that's probably it.

I'm glad you enjoyed the music and audio respectively, thanks for taking your time to review it,
I really do appreciate it very much.

Kind regards,
Generalned

Some of the head movement was a bit choppy, but your sound mix is really starting to shape up!  Good job.

Generalned,

In the beginning something in the background is visible on the right. Also, I was unaware that the actual shot was simply one, long uninterrupted shot as well. Yes, the lengthening of frames gave the appearance of a fluctuating frame rate. It may be difficult, but going back and refilming and ensuring that you don't need to lengthen frames would really add a lot to the film because the sections that weren't lengthened looked very well animated mini/smile

Re: My newest lego scene a remake of star trek with the actual voices.

Hey Caveman Incorporated,

I do appreciate your keen sigh, on noticing something in the background, I do believe as I said, it may have been the entry, and it's alright, no one would imply it on being a single actual shot, unless they saw that particular Star Trek episode.

Yes, I can agree on you the lengthening on some of the parts, the reason for this was his lines being so short, most of the time, then going into pauses, it didn't give me a lot of freedom to move his hands in the routine I needed, a little up then make sure it finishes back down, But I will work on it better in my next project,

I would re film it, however I am working on another project currently, and don't have the time to go back to it right now, but thank you for encouraging me to do it, again, I appreciate your review, and your enthusiasm to see it better, I will however be making another Star Trek, remake soon,
so check around, as the next one will be a lot more sophisticated and harder as there will be several characters rather than one, and camera changing positions quite a bit,
so I'm sure you will enjoy that when done, mini/smile
And Thanks again for your comment/review, I am glad you though it was well animated!

Kind regards,
Generalned
