Hey everyone
(If anyone is reading my thread) so this weekend I have been working on my storyboard/script quite a lot. I would like for the movie to last for a good amount of time, but not so long that it drags on and bores the audience. The two main characters who happen to be brothers (Brandon and David/Dave) create a time machine in order to save their parents from being killed in the past. But what the don't know yet is that the other time traveler, (the bad guy) is the one who killed their parents in an attempt to kill them to stop them from creating their own time machine. He wants to be the only time traveler. I won't need a ton of voice actors, as I can edit my voice by using a voice changer for the bad guy voice, as well as his droids. I will be playing Brandon and my brother will play the role of David. I haven't before completely  storyboarded a film before, but hopefully it will be good

Sweet! Good to hear that it's moving forward!

I'd be glad to voice act, assuming it'll be family-friendly. Time travel has always fascinated me, and I'm excited for the project. How long is the script?

P.S. One way to help generate more responses would be to post a few pictures, even if they are WIPs of a set, or a poster, or even a simple character design.

Hey guys, let's take a look BTS!

The first picture is of an actual set I built that I will use as the two main characters house when they were little kids when they lived with their parents.

The Second is of the antagonists base. He has his own time machine that I uniquely made for him.

The third is the alley where the parents will be killed

The fourth is the main characters garage/base, they have the DeLorean as their time machine. I built the original set, then modified it a bunch to make it look a bit different.

The fifth is a mix of the last three. I used as huge pad to build the alley, and both bases for the different characers.

The last picture is of the characters, from left to right: Brandon as a kid, Brandon as an adult, David as a kid, David as an adult, David and Brandon's Mom, David and Brandon's Dad, the other time traveler/antagonist, his workers

Hello everyone,
So if you guys see this, please tell me what you think of my project. I know I have slacked off my other films, but I will do my best to finish this one. I am still scripting/storyboarding. The film is WAY bigger than I originally thought. I will need to get more Lego pieces as I have said before. My older brother encouraged me to build the sets bigger, better backgrounds, and just better sets in general. One thing we like to quote is something Jonathan Vaughn's friend said to him, "This has to be the best brickfilm ever Jonathan!" That is what I am trying to make and finish. So please tell me what you all think, if you have any suggestions, or have any ideas, just tell me, thanks everyone.

Hello everyone what's going on?
Still scripting/storyboarding. I was able to get some more Lego pieces so I will be able to make the backgrounds and the sets much bigger and better than ever before. The plan for the film is to finish the writing the story, record all of the voices that I need, and then start filming. Once I get all of the scenes done, I will then begin the editing stage. I may edit in between every few shots or so, but I don't know for sure. my guess is that the filming process is going to take a super long time due to everything that is suppose to be happening. Beyond the Time Barrier is going to be the biggest and best film I have ever made. I am not sure how long the running time will be, but I am guessing probably close to half an hour. Time travel has always fascinated me, and to finally be able to make a film about it just excites me. Because time travel isn't possible, well at least right now and probably not in the future, but to be able to make a movie where it is completely possible really gets my imagination going and fuels my creativity for this film. The hardest part of making the film I believe will be adding sounds effects. There are soooo many sounds that I will have to add it's just crazy. But then again, no one ever said that Stopmotion movies are easy to make. (Well technically maybe someone did but they are incorrect) So please tell me what you guys think about this movie, I can always use feedback of what your thoughts are on this. I don't really know if I will try to make the Lego figures mouths move. I really like replacement animation where the characters heads change when you swap heads. Although I could edit the mouths on I guess. What do you guys think? I really need feedback for this so if you read this please tell me what you think I should do.

Wow I just noticed this project! This looks awesome! Can’t wait to see it! BTW I could voice act if you still need it.

Thanks for the advice!

Hello everyone,
Zach Studios here. (Again) So the film recently got EVEN BIGGER!!! I had to add more characters to help the story make more sense, which also means I had to find more voice actors. It also means that I had to build new characters that would fit into the story. I am still scripting, it is moving rather slow as I can't work on it as much as I would like to. While I am scripting Beyond the Time Barrier, I will shoot a short film just for fun. If anyone is interested in hearing what it's going to be about, just let me know and I will tell you.
