Wow this looks like it’s going to be great!
Thank you! I am working hard on it and its great to get this kind of feedback!
ooo! this looks very interesting!
Thanks GUATEMAX!
I have started animating the first shot!!! I filmed it once, and the blue screen failed so I'm doing it without blue screen now.

UPDATE
Hey guys! So I have animated the first shot of the story of Scout! I also got another voice today, and I almost have all ov=f the voices I need!
I am filming a BTS time-lapse! I am pretty happy with the script now, and I hope that you guys will love my movie! Stay tuned!

Here is a BTS pic!
Wow that looks great! I can’t wait to see this when it’s done.
I have done a couple edits to the script so it makes more sense, and is more like what I have in my head. I am also expanding the story where it could use it.(https://docs.google.com/document/d/13iZ sp=sharing)
Looks like it's going well. Nice BTS shot! Where's the camera in the real shot? Is it in the house?

Thanks! The camera (webcam) is just behind the houses wall. I am going to re-shoot it so it will be different, but rn I'm changing the script.
UPDATE
Hey guys!
So... I have been working hard on the film and I have a couple things I wanna tell you guys about!
1. The script is now formatted, and I am pretty happy with it. I have done changes to the script because some parts (like the beginning) wasn't very well explained and wasn't like what I had in my mind, but that's fixed now!
2. I decided to re-film the few shots I got done.
3. I got my brother and my neighbor to make one of the sets I needed done, so now I have another set done!
4. I have improved one of the houses in the first shots (that's why I'm re-filming the first couple shots) by adding a chimney because in Alaska you need to stay warm somehow.
5. I have put cork-board on the wall near where my desk/studio is so I can have a visual storyboard pads pinned to the wall so I can see what I want some tricky shots to look like instead of just having to read a piece of paper.
6. I have built a sliding Lego camera rig for my webcam so I can pull off some nice pans.
7. I have switched the woman figure out for another woman figure.
If you read this, THANKS! And stay tuned for more updates!
Now, here are some BTS pics!!!
This is the new set!
The improved house!
The new sliding rig!
The storyboard wall thing...
Enjoy!!!

Lookin' good!
The corkboard/storyboard thing is a cool idea. And that camera movement rig is interesting. Are the things on the legs rubber (to keep it from sliding)?

Thanks! No, I just put sticky tac on the red things/legs.

Hello everyone!
So I have not had much time to work on The story of Scout lately due to BRAWL, but I have learned a couple new things! I have been experimenting with different shots and animation, and I'm having more and more ideas for cool shots and stuff to make this film cool! I have been working a lot on my setup and things like that so I can get things done better, and faster. I want to make my own music for the film, but who knows if that will really happen.
Thanks for reading this short update! I plan to animate more soon!

Cool! Can’t wait! Great job on JARS, by the way.

Hey guys! Here is another update!
So I have re-built the main set for the story of Scout so I will be re-filming the first few shots I have filmed.
Here is the new set!
I spent the whole morning building it and I'm happy with the result!
I also just got a tripod a week or two ago and I love it! It makes camera movement so much easier and it is much better then using the small rigs I made of Lego.
I also am re-writing the script in Trelby instead of Google Docs.
That's it! Stay tuned for more updates!
Looks awesome! The way you used slope plates to curve the sidewalk looks really nice.
