Through the Hatch (Youtube)

Nearly all of the effects (smoke,lasers explosions etc.) are in shot meaning they're not computer generated. Hope you enjoy it, took ages to make. : )

Re: Through the Hatch

I see you're using a wrong thumbnail, which is sad, because that film was amazing!
I love how you got the old clasic' Brickfilm look, the audio was also top-notch!
Some techniques could be tweaked a little, but I enjoyed it all.
The animation was pretty good, even though some scenes were a little choppy.
After all, a veryenjoyable Brickfilm!

Re: Through the Hatch

That was amazing. Even with choppy animation it was very enjoyable, and the effects were great. I didn't liked the voices very much, but that's not a big problem. I'd give it a 5/5.
btw, Jackypody, he isn't using a wrong tumbnail...

Re: Through the Hatch

Thanks very much! That was my first real attempt at this and my frame rate has picked up a lot since then.  By wrong thumbnail do you mean the picture I uploaded?

Re: Through the Hatch

OH SNAP

You burned your LEGO?! You actually BURNED them?  OMG YOU SICKO

Seriously, though, that was very impressive. Much like The Portal. I look forward to more films from you.

Re: Through the Hatch

Every time you burn a LEGO piece, a puppy dies.

Re: Through the Hatch

Wow, effects are not computer generated? Impressive! The animation is choppy in some moments, but is generally good. I maybe more like The Magic Portal, but this is now a classic! Good job! mini/smile

I'm back. Possibly.

Re: Through the Hatch

This film is an epic win. With a classic feel and every thing! This is one of my new favorite films! mini/yes

I do not care about your opinion, unless it has to do with it needing more ponies.

Re: Through the Hatch

This was freaking EPIC! I just, wow, don't have any good words to describe it. At first, it seemed like it wouldnt be that good, but man, just BOOM, it blew me away. This is creative animation gold! I mean, sure, the animation could have been smoother, but considering your environment, the incredible flying effects and the sheer length of the film, I just forgot all about that. Speaking of the effects, those were AWESOME. Loads of flying elements, and no bluescreen/post production tricks at all, not detectable anyway. Just hilariously nicely executed. Loved all the flips and tricks, and the impossible physics fight sequences. Also, the robot-activation-lab scene was genious. mini/bigsmile freakin sweet. Also liked the "Toy story" feel your choice of setting gave, just some legos playing around in a loft like it was their natural environment, and not some built up, pure "lego-world".
Not many 10 minute brickfilms keep my attention the way this did. Just 10 minutes of pure ENJOYMENT. THANK YOU!

Re: Through the Hatch

Wow...that was amazing. The part where the robot is activated was totally my favorite part. The only thing that bugged me slightly was that the animation was a little too choppy, but considering the amount of work you put into this I don't blame you for it. This is definitely one of my new favorite brickfilms. mini/bigsmile

Re: Through the Hatch

That was awesome!  It seemed a bit choppy, but I was really impressed with the flying parts.  You did a great job animating the robot thing rolling and jumping.  The explosions and timing of everything was good.  As jumpcut said, the feel of the attic was perfect.  It didn't seem out of place to have them in the attic.  Ten minutes of pure joy!

Re: Through the Hatch

This was freaking awesome dude.  Some of the camera movements in this are just insane.

Re: Through the Hatch

Pretty good.

Re: Through the Hatch

Love the car chase. The effects and the helicopter was cool. The dance scene at the end kinda ruined it for me though.
PS, What the F--- is "every time you burn a lego a puppy dog dies"?

Re: Through the Hatch

Well done! I love how you used the Borhok as a robot suit! That was a great idea! (I also liked that part, because I have a Borhok just like that mini/wink ) How did you do those midair shots? And for that matter? How did you do your effects? If you didn't add any of the effects, then I have no clue how you did a lot of that! I have a few guesses for the red light effects at some parts, but still the explosions I have no idea how you made! mini/bigsmile  I think it could have done without the Police guy with his pants down at the begging, and the article of clothing that was thrown on stage was a little questionable to me, but still it was very good, and very well thought out! I would have never thought of doing a lot of the things you did in this video! mini/smile

"Pretty good?" PRETTY GOOD? This was amazing! The camera movements, the shots where the characters move through tunnels of junk, the "homemade" explosions, this is an instant classic, you should be proud namchild, for you've created such a brilliant work of art and orginality.

Me on youtube: "Plus the end fight scene in the styrofoam was epic win."

Re: Through the Hatch

It's just not our taste. You can respect what we think.
