Life is tough for Legos

Life is tough for Legos

So here's the deal. I haven't made any brickfilms since 2011, that's 5 years. It's not meant to be fully polished, but I would still request some feedback for my video to look more fluent etc!

The joke in my video is basically the impossibilities for lego figures to control their life. Having a very limited amount of sets to work on is not helping if you're like this fellow in my video who(spoiler alert) tries to kill himself by jumping out of a building.

Now, I know it's hard to understand the full purpose of this joke in the video but I believe I will expand on this dilemma further in other videos.

Thank you for watching!

Welcome back to BiM, MySimpleWorld! I appreciate the concept of the film. Since you asked for some feedback, I'll give you some. mini/wink

The "tall-building" concept could have been more effective if you had used some backgrounds outside the windows, maybe like other buildings or a sky, instead of a desk. Then, when the camera went outside the set, it would be more of a surprise. Also, when the guy jumped, you might have wanted to include a couple more frames so we knew he was actually jumping.

As for the technical aspects, you should try stabilizing your camera so it doesn't move around a lot. That's the main thing I noticed with your video.

Keep up the practice! mini/smile

Re: Life is tough for Legos

Pretty much what rio said. Make sure your camera is rigged properly so you don't get the jittering, but it looks like you've acknowledged this. There was a little light flicker as well, but it could've been much worse. 5 years is a long time to go without brickfilming, so I can understand that it's unpolished. Welcome back, though.
