I wish I could build stuff like that. 
But my camera is really heavy and bulky. Making stuff like that impossible. 
NXT, is that a duel pan and dolly type rig? Looks really cool! Can't wait to see the film!
What are the greenish-blue semi-circles on the base of your lamp? Are they weights?
I wish the camera lense on my phone could be on the middle of the phone or near there, sadly its on the corner and i need to build large sets because of that

Do you use your phone for brickfilming?
Yes, does a pretty good job (3.5) mpxl
That's really not a good idea. Do you have any other cameras you can use, or a webcam?
Why isn't it a good idea? If you really can't use the recommended live feed tactic that most of us use (and everyone should use), it's just as good as any other camera.
NXT.....the camera cradle.... I WANT.

It can only move the camera up and down, so I usually do other movements freehand. Thanks!

Yep, 5 pounds each.
Am I the only one who has my Lego in one box?
Nope,i put my sets in 1 box and the bricks in another.
I don't have a highly advanced one,it's just my PC,webcam,lego's,and a box because my studio is on my bed!!!
I will have a better studio soon.

Just brought a Canon 550D, so put a Tripod and DSLR in front of the set...
I currently just made a version of Bodville's camera cradle for the C910. I'll post pictures tonight along with my studio.

The weight is really necessary since the actual cradle for the camera is so heavy itself.

That actually looks like a professional Hollywood camcorder with the weight being the microphone
Seriously though it's very good.

what capture Program do you use? I had the same camera and Animator HD and it didn't like each other...
Usually Stopmotion Pro and Dragon. Sometimes Helium frog as well, but it can be quite buggy. As far as Animator HD is concerned, I used it with Simple + and it worked fine for me. Any specific problems you are facing?
And @Ratboy, haha thanks a lot! Now that I think of it, it does look kinda like a camera and mic.
