I can definitely agree with everything that the other guys have said, but here are a few other things:
Animation:
Undershadow is right, easing in and out is very important. However, I would like to recommend this video, which I think explains it perfectly. As for fps (frames per second), that is just how many pictures (frames) there are in a second, and so the higher the fps the smoother the animation, although most generally settle for 15fps, as that makes it feel smooth and realistic (if done right). Some go for 24fps, which can also look good, although some feel that no longer looks like a brickfilm when you get to that level, and I think that everyone will agree with me when I say don't go above 24fps, as then it looks too smooth. However, seeing as you're new to brickfilming, I would recommend starting at 12fps, as it can be hard to start off with 15fps as a beginner.
Lighting:
I don't know if you're using natural light (if so then stop and start using desk lamps)!!! I also don't know if you're using a phone, webcam or camera to film, but if you're using a camera then the light flicker is coming from the lights (if you are using lamps) otherwise it may be the phone/webcam, but it could still be the lights.
