I think you have a copy of my brickfilming guide.  For long scenes of just talking, check the chapter on "efficient dialogue animation"

Excited to see this.  I'm editing your episode 2 and 3 now.

Hey HOO],

That's great to hear man thank you, always excited to see your edits and re-writes. I am also most pleased for your excitement!

Thanks Togfox much appreciated mate! I hope you enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed animating it when its done!

Small UPDATE].
Alright guys, as mentioned before I have been quite busy with tournaments and traveling, things have gotten a whole lot busier for me as now I am in a squad from 9am-4pm. By the end of it I am honestly drained and so tired. However! Don't stress yet, rest assured this project will be getting done, the holidays are from next week (from Friday) And I have two weeks, which hopefully every night I'll be working on it! Also if I'm able from this Saturday coming I would like to continue scene 3. As said there is a lot more work that scene 3 will need and is a lot more demanding, but none the less it must and will be done.

I'd also like to thank If I Were A Minifig] for just being a solid person, he produced a demo for me to listen to and I was just in love with the demo, also always helpful. Thanks man.

Sincerely,
Divine.

Small Update]

Hey guys,

So it has been quite some time from the last update. For good reason. I have been just deadset everyday busy, training working hard, and studying.

However I want to inform everyone that this project is still very much alive. I'm hoping tonight or tomorrow, I will begin shooting scene 3. As said previously scene 3 will be much more prestigous and effort consuming than both the first and second scene put together. Infact it'll be longer than both of them. Anyhow that will not stop me from finishing the first episode. Which is my current goal.

I do have another very prestigious project I plan on doing as well but for now will keep that low key and focus on this.

I am asking anyone that has CGI/VFX experience for many basic CGI/VFX designs, that you can find out all about in my first post. You will be highly credited, and very much appreciated.

This series really needs it so if anyone, I mean anyone can spare some time for this project. Please PM me, or email me. (Email in first post).

Hey HOO],
That's good to know, but also don't be afraid to share pointers on how I could improve the plot if you have ideas, I'm always up for improvising!
Also how is the edits going? Haven't heard back from you yet. Also I've been reading your guide especially for the long dialog, it still kinda confuses me is there any chance for a possible visual tutorial that I could privately watch? (If applicable). I'm one of these people who understand things much easier visually.

Sincerely,
Divine.

Indeed, HOO. Divine, while I understand how frustrating it is when other people prove unreliable - all but one of my live-action projects came to nothing thanks to the unpredictability of others - please try to be more civil with your responses to it. Like HOO said, we're almost all amateurs and hobbyists here, and whether people say they can or can't help you, please try to understand that a lot of the time, other people need to put their own projects first. Life is full of disappointments, but publicly 'shaming' another user is not the way to deal with things, and can be hurtful.

SPECIAL UPDATE!]

WOW alright guys, great news a part of scene 3 has now been completed yesss.... over 300 frames now completed for this scene and it is a great relief! Next scene will be a lot of dialog so I am very excited for it!

I am even thinking of tackling it all tonight as well! I will make this attempt but if not, I will continue next week, as this week I am backed up with tournaments but good news is the following week is a few weeks break which is great!

Also just some small news, Sargent Togans character for some reason has gone missing which is disappointing, I know its around somewhere but because I am eager to get the first episode out asap. I have changed his head and am happy to keep him as Sargent Togan.

Here is the new pic of Sargent Togan let me know what you guys think about the change, anyone who is not familiar with the original Sargent Togan please check the audio thread of LOCT.

New Sargent Togan

Also I am planning on creating the Poster of Life Of A Clone Trooper soon as well so stay tuned!

NOTICE:] There will be no photos for this update of the scene, however in the next update expect photos!!

Sincerely,
Divine.

Not sure if your being sarcastic, or your being serious. But yes, I do use bold letters, and for good reason they all there own meaning and I feel it does explain things better this way.

If your not aware perhaps you have not been keeping up with the thread so let me be of assistance to you.

Blue]: If a name is bolded with blue] in this thread, this means he is a former member and an important person of this series (This is different to Voice actors, as these members in blue have special tasks that are vital for the series besides voicing), and alloacated to his/her field of expertise. See the first post of this thread for more info.

Red]: Bolded red is generally for updates.

Black bold: Black bold in general is for the use of character names or members names out of respect.

If you are against me using Bold lettering, then I am sorry but being this thread and having explained the use of it, I hope you are joking about my use of bold lettering.

I would also ask you please keep to the threads relevant to the topic which is anything related to Life of A Clone Trooper.

To be honest I was hoping to see a nice comment.

If it was intentionally a joke, ignore this completely.

Sincerely,
Divine.

No no don't be offended if it was a joke, its a joke theres nothing to it

But I thought it would be helpful to give you and others who are interested for the use of bold lettering why it's used more than usual in this thread.

Also to keep this on Topic I would like to mention that some minor effects will be getting done into the scenes and once its complete I'll post up some photos of the new changes. ]

Divine.

Important Update].

Alright hey guys!

So as you all may be aware production has been a little slow these last couple of days in regards to animating, because of my ongoing tournament. Good news is it finishes tomorrow. Once it's over I plan to get back on my feet and aiming to finish off the first episode as soon as possible. Originally what was meant to be episode 1 will have to be extended to episode 2 and those two episodes will become episode 1. As I have estimated episode 1 by the script to be around 2 minutes to 2 minutes and a half long, and I'm really trying to push each episode to at least 5 minutes or more.

Also good news is that the script is extending!

Currently I have plans to create a whole season of this series, that will include 10 episodes that will consist anywhere from 5-7 minutes long (This is a plan I hope to keep and see its light of day), I already have a plot and story in mind, and it is getting revised and worked on.

NOTICE]: This is actually a big notice, that the fact this series actual title may and probably will change from were the story is heading, but note this is a positive reach and well worth it. I will keep you updated, nothing will be changed as of now. ]

HOO] if you are still around bud, I'd really like you to get back to me otherwise you'll have to much on your hands to work with! Ha ha! Also it'll really help as I can PM the VA's sooner than later.

Sincerely,
Divine.
