Started animating Vampire Egress today. I was going to wait until I had the voices, but there were some lighting effects and some vfx I wanted to try out first. Originally I was going to light it the way I normally do night scenes, but when I looked at one of the test frames I realised I hadn't changed the white balance after the last time I used my camera, and it had a surprisingly fitting, murky effect.
Because I didn't take as much LEGO to uni this year as I did last year, the set isn't all that big or expansive, so I'll be shooting shots in batches rather than chronologically. This will also be the first Vampire Town brickfilm shot on an entirely new set (since Owls and Booze had the same basic set with different, uh, 'interior decoration').
I should mention these are graded and, in the first frame, effects added (the ghostly figure slowly fades in, nothing too flashy).
