After about 2 weeks of not doing anything, I finally continued the animation for episode 1. I am about 50% done. Hoping to finish all the animation for episode 1 before Christmas.

I will be working non stop during Christmas break in the animation for this series. I will taking a break January 7th to participate in THAC XIV but after that again non stop animation.

My goal is finish all the animation for episode 1, episode 2 and most if not all of episode 3 during Christmas break....
Wish me luck.

Because of the delays at the animation process, the release date is probably going to pushed back to February.
Doing the best I can to bring the release back in January. Only time can tell.

Each episode should be about 3 to 4 minutes. (I have a 4 page script of every episode).
There should be a total of 9 episodes in season 1. The season finally should be release around the middle - end of the summer followed by a full video containing all the season 1 episodes.

Announcement video should be coming to my YouTube channel before the end of 2016. Full trailer and behind the scenes looks scheduled for a release sometime in January as well...

LEGO Star Wars Rebel War follows the story of LEGO Star Wars Republic, so if you haven't seen it yet, go to my YouTube channel and enjoy 18 minutes worth of stop motion animation.

Follow me on Google+ since i will be posting tons of BTS pictures and even some previews at the first episodes. 
(I will not show any preview images this time. I do not want to reveal everything.)

Nice. Looking forward to it!

Episode 1 is finally done and episode 2 is well into production. I have about 50% of episode 2 done and I am hoping to get the rest animated in the next 4 days.

Episode 3 script is finally written and sent for voice actors. Hopefully by the end of next week, I can get all of episode 2 and most of episode 3 animated. Then we are ready for THAC

Here is a preview frame from episode 2. Again, this in unedited with 0 post processing.

After about 3 weeks, I finally did some more animation of episode 3. I now have about 40 - 50 % of it done. My goal is to finish it until the end of the month.

I have also written 95% of the script for episode 4 as well as a story treatment of episode 5.
A Casting Call should be done really soon to get some voice actors for the rest of the series.

Due to many delays the first actual trailer of the series will come out early February. Around the end of the same month, the 1st episode should be released.

That looks pretty good. The animation, set design and lighting were all great. The abrupt ending of the music was a bit odd and made me think some sort of joke was coming. I look forward to episode one.

I have now made a casting call in the BiM Casting Calls Forums. I am in need of a couple of voice actors so if you are interested please go take a look. Here is a link: http://www.bricksinmotion.com/forums/to … ting-call/

I have now wrapped animation for episode 3 (being around 3 minutes not including titles and credits). I do need the voice actors in order to continue with animation for episode 4. I hope to have everything set in the next 2 weeks.

Until then, I will be working on some more creative type for brickfilms (not related with Star Wars).

As I said, Episode 1 comes out March 5th and there will hopefully be an episode every other week.
More updates  - news will be coming as we get closer to the release date. Follow me on Google+ in order not to miss on those.

Episode 1 is finally here!

New episodes every other week!

Thank you! Yes, I made the laser effects. I actually used a technic from a fellow lego animator AsapAnimations. He have a very good tutorial up on his YouTube channel which I followed to make the effect.

It's again time for an update.

Episode 4 is about 75% animated, and I should have it complete by next weekend. I have also written the script for episode 5 which has been sent to voice actors.  I am just waiting on one more actor to deliver his lines and I will be ready to begin animating this episode as well. My ultimate goal is to have all the animation of episodes 4 and 5 done before April 13th.

Here is the release schedule I have so far:

• Episode 2: March 19th

• Episode 3: April 2nd

• Episode 4: April 16th

After episode 4 there will be a small mid season break. Episode 5 will return early June. In the time between April and June, I will be surely recreating the Star Wars Episode VIII trailer that should come out mid April.

Season 1 will have a total of 9 episodes with the finale premiering around August 1st.
Just for a sneak peak, here is an unedited raw frame from episode 4. (I know, I does not reveal much.) More previews to come!
