Topic: Trailer - Time To Pretend

Time To Pretend

Link on Rinto51's new channel (please support him, he has to start from scratch now and is in need of more support!! mini/smile

Here's a trailer for my upcoming music video. A lot of the footage is not actually going to be in the final film, including the backstory with all the dialogue. So: I'll explain it now. The origin of this film was a comeback film for both me and my friend Rinto51. I never really gave up lego but for a while I was not brickfilming, but he went through a long period of deep rejection (the symbolic "suicide" on the railroad.) He then comes back to life (AKA starts brickfilming again.)
So that is pretty much what this film is about. The backstory didn't fit well with the rest of the film, so we decided to remove it.

Note: This trailer doesn't actually contain the song we are making a music video for. That song is called Time To Pretend by the band MGMT.

Here are some screenshots from the final film.

Thanks for watching, the video will be out soon hopefully!! mini/cat

Re: Trailer - Time To Pretend

I know how your friend must feel. I, myself, was bullied a lot in elementary school.

Anyways, there's quite a bit of choppy animation and sloppy writing when the title is shown. But, it doesn't take away from the trailer entirely. mini/wink

Have you seen a big-chinned boy?

Re: Trailer - Time To Pretend

Lol, I know the title block looks silly with its MS Paint stuff, but if you watch the actual music video, the title looks exactly like that. I'm not even joking, it looks like they used a cheap paint program. A hipster's stylistic choice I suppose. We are really trying to emulate the style of the original video in this production, without blatantly copying it. It's cheesy, but the rest of the video is probably more cheesy if you ask me (like when he rides on a cat)
Thanks for the feedback!
