Vote for 2013 BFG Brickfilmer of the Year
Vote for your pick for 2013 Brickfilmer of the Year. You need to be a member of the Brickfilmer's Guild to vote. Go to http://brickfilmersguild.com/elgg/pg/po … ary-1-2014 to vote. Below is information about this year's 10 nominees. There are links embedded in the same description below the poll on the BFG. I could not be bothered with manually putting 30 links in this post (sorry). Voting ends February 1, 2014. I believe at least 8 of the nominees are Bricks in Motion members.
Aiwha, Bruno Lefevre is an administrator on the French brickfilming website Brick-á-Brack. Aiwha was the run away winner of Onion Animation's GO FILM 2013 contest on BiM. He is very active in most of the online brickfilming communities. He also made an extensive sound effects library which is available on Brick-á-Brack.
Bodville won the ReBrick AFOL contest with LEGO Brick Blues. His ReBrick Movie contest entry Bovonic Tonic was very popular in the the ReBrick LEGO Movie contest. He also participates in Brickvention Australian convention event every year.
Brotherhood Workshop had an incredible 2013. Their Lord of the Rings brickfilm parodies gained one million plus views on YouTube. Many of those LotR brickfilms were blogged online with high frequency on popular blogging websites like Kotaku, Gizmodo, Yardbarker, and more. Brotherhood Workshop also won the ReBrick LEGO Movie brickfilm contest which might have been the most important brickfilm contest of the year as their brickfilm entry Gorgy wants a Horse might be included in the LEGO Movie being released in early 2014.
ForlornCreature started his year winning Bricks-in-Motion's THAC X with his brickfilm Le Special. His popular LEGO Minecraft brickfilms have earned 1/2 million views and he also released a great brickfilm music video this year called Sex Rocket.

Harrison Allen (A.K.A. Squid) was a guest speaker at Brickflix 2013 and won BRAWL 2013 onBricksInMotion with his incredible brickfilm Odoriferous.
Insomniac Animations ,Dillon Woodly, had a great year although his YouTube channel didn't have many video releases, but that doesn't mean he wasn't working hard at the art. He created the LEGO version of the Ed Sheeran's LEGO House music video which has already gained over 6 million views. He also created a LEGO Castle themed brickfilm Chapter 6: Unto the Breach for LEGO for LEGO as a Tongal project which is a stunning piece of work.
Kooberz Studios continued his brickfilming excellence with more great Machinma Channel uploads such as BrickTube - Aliens which gained some great online blog exposure. He also released tons of brickfilming content (tutorials, throwbacks, interviews, "How to Builds", and previews) on his very active YouTube channel.
Paganomation David Pagano is a brickfilming legend in his own right. He was co-winner of Brickfilmer of the Year in 2011 and is a true ambassador of the art of brickfilming. He is one of the organizers of Brickflix Film Festival in Durham, North Carolina and also one of the Cinema Co-Coordinators for Brickworld Film Festival in Chicago. Paganomation is currently working on a Kickstarter crowd funded project called Little Guys in Space. Paganomation did well in the ReBrick Movie Contest by earning 2nd place. David Pagano is also the Co-Editor of Set Bump. Lastly, Paganomation also does commission stop motion for the LEGO Gropu and some of them are currently featured on the LEGO TV app for iPhone.
