Topic: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Hey there guys,

Its been been some time since I've posted, I had been away from lego and stop motion all together for the past couple of weeks due to me resting from a head injury. Now that I'm all better I am excited to jump back in.

I have been recently working more with green base plates, and seeing as I have quite a few I've decided I'm going to go with a Medieval story, I have already started scripting and infact tonight I began animating. So far I have just finished the first scene which was quite a long scene to tackle (Just over 1190 frames!!) But I am very happy with it and that I was able to finish it.

I will hopefully begin set building for the next scene tomorrow, and this will be more of a teaser release before the actual film begins. So a lot of this may be re-done but of course for th better, script right now is still in draft stages. But none the less it is good for production.

Samuel and the Kingdom of AvarlonRavenhorn:
Samuel is the main character of this story, he is a former knight and unknowingly as of yet the hero of Avarlon. He is a loyal and respected knight, and has a band of brothers that fight by him in times of need. The Kingdom of Avarlon however has touched darkness in times of struggle bandits and thieves have been plundering villages around the kingdom, and creatures from the north that been said to be lurking closer and closer to the kingdoms mines. There was even rumors of a dragon.
  Samuel will set upon a quest to find these troubled villages, and investigate what is going on, and take action where needed. In a way, you could say his like the Sherlock Holmes of the Medieval ages.

As I progress new photos will be put up, and hopefully soon a voicing call for characters.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Big update!

This is definitely a big update. Today I have brought all the characters that will likely have a part in my upcoming film, the Kingdom of Avarlon.

Firstly, theres some changes, the kingdoms name will be changed into something else in time, character names have started taking place and scripting is going great! 14 pages so far and continuing looking to get to about 40-60 pages as this will be a much longer film than anticipated. Although the frame above, the film will not likely take place with either of the characters, as Characters have been re-assembled.

Pictures with info:

Exiled Knights (Fighting for their own cause)

And finally the Dragon!

This is all for now, the other characters that need to be figured out is the main character, Samuel and a few others. I'll update when I have made progress on the script!

Once the casting call begins, description on all the characters will be available!

I am proud to say that this film and script will use a lot of lore and background history which I really enjoy having.

Sincerely,
Divine.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Those all look great except for the one fleshie in the whole cast.

I'm....................................... A brickfilming noob.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Hey Umbra-Manis, the fleshie is actually purposely a fleshie he is known as Rollant the Pale mini/lol Ha ha. They all play a special part, and each of their faces/banners have their own story.

Which hopefully soon you will learn more about.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Wow, seeing some Skyrim inspired factions!
I'd recommend using something like this: http://rinkworks.com/namegen/ if you have trouble making up names for the characters.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Thank you for the positive feedback guys, I didn't want to post till I had an update.

@Troodon, Indeed a lot of inspiration has come from Skyrim thank you for the name generator fortunately I have all the names ready and am much happy with them mini/smile
@Harborlight Productions, Thanks bro!
Rivvm m, Hopefully it won't be short lived, once scripting is done you can expect a lot more updates, more frequently.

Small update:
Today I purchased two minecraft crafter sets
http://i62.tinypic.com/2ypbrc6.jpg
While it was rather expensive I thought they could come useful later on. There is some particular scenes I'd like to possibly use them in.

Scripting is going great, going strong at 19 pages. So far it looking great with very need of redoing and editing at this time.

Hoping to start bringing out the character bios hopefully by sometime this week or the coming week, as I am still finalizing some final characters, especially the main.

A casting call will also be coming soon.

Sincerely,
Divine.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Big Update:

So this week has been indeed very busy. Writing has come to its final stages, at 59 pages! The total run time of the film is estimated to be just over an hour long with the credits!

There is quite a bit of characters, and a casting call is expected to happen sometime this week if possible. Reality is I want too get the casting call out as soon as applicable, as I wish too get right into this project. This project does have some intense scenes (Hard to do scenes) which will get more into as the updates begin, once animation takes off.

I want to mention once again the title of the film will be changed I am still contemplating over several names right now but will update it as soon as I'm happy with it.

A new character list is also expected to be done in the coming week. (Hopefully) It has been very intense and busy indeed.

I also have not mentioned this, but the fact is I am actually also in the process of another feature script that also has a medieval theme, which once I get further into a new thread would be dedicated to that. But right now there is no way to begin two feature films at this stage, it is too hard to do lol.

Thats all for now guys, look out on the audio section in the coming week, hopefully the characters will be up along with their bio. Also a update will be posted here once that has happened.

Sincerely,
Divine.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Hey Harborlight Productions,

Haha I am sure your script will be grand when its done! As they say patience is the key to a good story. But as for me, I like to work a little faster on my writing, its the only thing I struggle with when it comes to patience luckily I have a very creative imagination sometimes that can be a bad thing.

However if I'm animating I have no problem to stay for hours, but for writing its very different.

Small update:
Things are going well, however the casting call, bios and all the character list will be put up by hopefully early Monday. I have been quite busy working on several different things and haven't had much time to fully eradicate on the film just due to personal things along the way, but by Monday all of it should be updated along with the editing of the script and putting it into its final stage!

Sincerely,
Divine.

I'm trying my best, I have very high expectations when it comes to screenwriting, that's probably why it takes me forever. mini/tongue

And so you should Harborlight Productions, that way you know its the best you could hope for in your script!

Video Update:
Hey guys, so some greats news I have decided to create a video/scene of my upcoming film, altough this scene doesn't have much to do with the actual script (not this one anyway) The characters are related to the script. Which you'll find out more once the casting call is released along with their bio (expect it hopefully by Monday/Tuesday, possibly earlier.

The video will be posted in the releases section, the link below:
http://bricksinmotion.com/forums/topic/20727/

Any feedback is much appreciated mini/smile

Character bios, and casting is still as scheduled to be up by Monday/Tuesday.

Divine.

Re: Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn.

Update!

So the name has finally been settled it will be called Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn, there may be a few slight changes but overall this is the name I am happy with.

Now an important update, as I mentioned earlier I am working on two different scripts the other one that I am working on is at 35 pages, I have another 5 pages to do and it'll finish there. I have decided to start off with that project so a lot of these characters above are all pretty much related to the story. Thieves Guild and the exiles warriors in the video above are also in this script.

The main reason for changing over the two films and which one to begin first is mainly because Samuel and the Kingdom of Ravenhorn will be around 40 minutes long, and the other one goes for 60 minutes. The shorter one will be completed much faster, although both have a large dialog based script, which will make time a little longer than anticipated. But dialog to me is very important and both scripts are heavy in dialog.

Character list will be coming soon, hoping by tomorrow or Tuesday. Still setting up some bios but getting there.

I have now made the use of making sets that don't require it being just lego, I like it a lot more and will hope to make more use of it, I have Titan to thank for the inspiration.

When Samgee and the Brotherhood escaped the capital as Thaloc Oakenforg’s forces rampaged, they managed to bundle young Samuel with them, later giving him to distant relatives for safekeeping.

Despite all of his mighty resources, King Samgee’s scouts could find no trace of her after the battle.

http://i58.tinypic.com/dzf3o4.jpg
