Topic: Power of the Blast

Hello everyone!  So, it took me almost 2years to recover from my last "major" animation movie outing (.

This is one is an altogether more straightforward affair.   As per usual, I combine some different ingredients:
LEGO® + Star Wars™ + Death Metal + Drumming.


LEGO® Darth Vader - Power of the Blast

Hope you enjoy.  There a gazillion things that I'd probably want to do differently here if I could...  Still gotta work on my production values chops!

An interesting video; I'd say the animation needs a little work. Also, it was a little repetitive, as the only thing really happening is Vader drumming. Still good however.

Re: Power of the Blast

In addition to what has been said about the animation, the camera angles could use some work.  It was kind of repetitive to have most of the angled looking down on vader and mostly showing the back of the drum set.  I get that you were trying to show the animation, but it just looked weird because too much time was dedicated to showing us the back.  I would have liked to see more angles at eye level or below and from the front.  To do this you could build your set on a platform to match your camera height. 

To improve the animation, I suggest viewing this tutorial.  Just keep improving and practicing!
