I bought a desk today, so I'm officially able to enter. I had to get really creative with ideas since most of my LEGO is six hours away; I think I'm going for the entry most out of left field award. I also have to work a full 40 hour week, so we'll see if I'm actually able to finish. My entry isn't to long though, so I'll think I'll get it done.
I think I'm going to start over. I've had a great good idea whilst laying in bed, better than my previous one anyway. So I'll have to start over from scratch. 
Well, I finished the screenplay. Came out to 6 pages and will require a few voice actors, 8 different characters, two of which are women. So...yeah, not super smart of me. I'll be making a casting call in a few minutes, hopefully I can get most of it cast.
I really don't know if I'll be able to actually animate the entire thing, I just know I'll try!
Well, the mod is certainty there, though I'm not sure why you put that green there on the house. It's already as colourful as it is. The lighting's also a wee bit too on the warm side for natural lighting. I like that tree, though.
I've just got a great idea of how to execute the horror movie i wanted to do. I want to do it right now, but i guess i need to do something for BRAWL...
I haven't done anything on my BRAWL film still.
I've finally got the story done! Nothing to special to be honest. I'll build sets for each scene today, and begin animation tomarrow right through until Thursday. I hope this won't be a disaster like last year's one!
Finally got a good rough draft of my script done! Now it's time to record voices and animate.
I'm done with the script. It's good. It's funny. I think that it is going to work.
I am so behind. I haven't even finished developing my story. 
Gah, It's hard to work away from home.
I've started doing some VFX for my microscale space base. I'm still touching it up, so any thoughts? The electrical thing is a giant generator.

Damn, I really like it, seems like I might have a few people that are going to be a challenge to beat for brawl
Gonna start animating. Probably finish a shot or two... I hope so anyway.
I like the design of the set, the spark effects look a tad weird, though.
I like the background, however it seems too sharp. Some of the bricks near the back are just starting to fade out of focus, thus the background should also be somewhat blurred. It might also to with some colour correction so that the background and set look more as one.

Yeah, I guess I could have done it without the green on the house, but I don't want to reanimate the scene. I'll try to keep the light a wee bit darker.
Watch it on YouTube!The problem of the light isn't that it's too bright or dark, but that the hue is a bit wrong. Usually natural light it much more neutral, but it has a sort of very slight light blue thing to it. Perhaps if you colour corrected a little bit it would be a little nicer. Though it usually is better to do it in shot. If you shine your light off of some coloured surface back onto your set, you can often times get that look.
Here's a frame from my upcoming BRAWL entry. Can you find the mod?
I'm going to start animating my film when I get the chance today. Seeing that a lot of people have started already makes me a bit nervous that I'm behind.
I may have to do a good bit of animating tonight if I want to finish my three page story by Saturday. I'm determined to finish the entry, but it might mean cutting something out.

My thoughts, exactly!
Yeah, you should have blurred it more.
I've gotten most of my movie cast, and all but a few of the lines are in.
Also, got about 1/4 of a page filmed, and got the next set ready to go. Not bad for only a few hours of work today.
The mod element colors are giving me a fit, so let's just say the sets may be a bit more colorful and garish this time around. Also, not a frame, and not the title, but maybe a teaser poster:
Beautiful shot! Hilarious, too! I guess it's gonna be a real challenge getting a prize. 
I'm hoping to officially write the script and storyboard today. I already have the story figured out in my mind (which is why I have already designed most of the set), but now I need to commit it to paper so I can plan out my shots.
