Director's Comments
It has it's problem's yes, but is very entertaining for the people who aren't critics. Note to viewer. This was made for an event that had a deadline, so I had to rush in the middle of the project. This is not the best quality I can produce. mini/smile

Re: George Washington's Rules of Civility

Good! I enjoyed this animation. It was good fun.

Your audio was a bit distorted at times; the top had been shaved off some of the louder parts of dialogue. I might also suggest you maybe invest in a better camera, as the image quality was quite grainy.

Also, some of the minifigure choices were a bit odd. You may not have that many civilian torsos, but having Space Police guy and stuff like that in a crowd looked a bit odd. Same with the guy with the Barbarian torso in the classroom.

Those are just minor gripes though. Overall, I thought this was pretty solid. Keep it up!

Thank you! mini/bigsmile  Yes, it is planned to buy a new camera and voice recorder. I knew the quality would be horrible but I had to live with what I had.

I put the barbarian guy in the class room as a joke. mini/tongue Also I am very low on minifigures so I had to work with it. I will surely work on that in my next film. mini/smile

Thanks for the feedback!

Hello everyone,

If you could rate this that would be great! I see the ratings disappeared for some reason. mini/smile

You can de-arm the minifigure torsos and turn them backwards if they have plain colors on the back.
As for the film, it had it's flaws but was still an entertaining watch.

Re: George Washington's Rules of Civility

I really liked this short! It's funny and inventive. The titles would've been better with a different type of font though and the sounds were a bit weird at points (says the guy whose Bane can be hardly understood mini/tongue ), but I loved the voice of the professor, so good job!

Yeah, this movie was meant to be a little goofy. mini/tongue I do know my sound is extremely horrible . . .:P Really? Whoo, because I was a little hesitant when my Dad voiced that. mini/tongue I'm glad someone liked it! mini/bigsmile

Does anyone know why this is not showing in the movie directory?

It has to be moderated by the Bricks in Motion staff before it goes on the directory. The forum topic usually shows up first.

Nice video, by the way! I enjoyed the humor of the rules. Some of them are logical, but some don't make much sense. mini/tongue I didn't know I wasn't supposed to eat in the street... I'll remember that next time. mini/wink

Believe it or not they all come from the book. It's just that some of them are rather strange. mini/tongue

Re: George Washington's Rules of Civility

This doesn't show up in the film directory. That's why I probably have 4 ratings.

your film is in the directory, it's on the second page, currently films do not have to be approved to get into the directory.

Nice film. I enjoyed watching it. I would work on your lighting, but your animation was good!
