Re: The Profession

Ten thumbs up, MindGame! This is your best film you ever made! How'd you do the camera movement in that fight scene?

And also, is it me, or is it the fact that Smeagol appears as a voice actor in almost EVERY crime related film? mini/tongue

He moved the camera a little at a time randomly, or he added a digital "shaky-cam" effect in post-prodution.

Amazing fight sequence, for a moment there, I forgot I was watching plastic figures!

Re: The Profession

Wow, the animation in this is stunning, as yours always is.  That is the best fist fight in lego I have ever seen.  I must say the animation is the strong point in this, but everything else is kind of meh IMO.  The storyline is nothing special, a cool idea, but basically just an everyday spy film.  The lighting was not a fave for me, it felt too white, not tinged enough, and too dark for good shadows and contrast.  I also did not enjoy the constant cuts during the fight sequence, it was a little hard to follow, though exceptionally well done.  All in all, it was well executed, and my review is more harsh than what I actually thought.  It wasn't superb, but it was good, very good, and your animation is, once again, absolutely amazing.
I knew I recognized that voice, guessed it early on, is it good or bad that I'm starting to recognize voice actors in the Lego community??

Also, you just had to get it in for the 2010 BiMA didn't you. mini/wink

Re: The Profession

Wonderful job. Excellent sound design and animation.

And I echo what BWJCLego says; nice BiMA bait here. mini/tongue

That's the mark of a true Brickfilmer. Amazing, it was worth the wait! And I hope Keshen doesn't plug me for saying this, but that fight scene was the best in my book.

Re: The Profession

Apart from that stange smile that didn't really fit in some places, this was really awesome. Especially the camera movement. And the animation.

Re: The Profession

Great job! The animation was spectacular and the best i've seen this year! (It's the first day of the year). You are totally gonna get nominated for best animation on the BiMA 2010 Awards.

Re: The Profession

He already did. By me. mini/wink

Re: The Profession

The fight scene was certainly the highlight. I think the animation, whilst very good, is not the "best ever seen" as people seem to be saying. The excellent choreography and framing is what makes it it my opinion.

Re: The Profession

This is an amazing piece of work.  From the animation, set and the one of a kind story, everything is extremely well-done. 
5/5 for sure.

Re: The Profession

Amazing! The fight sequence was so good I was like http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p84/UberSocks/5-3.gif

I can't brickfilm for now. See you guys later.

Re: The Profession

I love the shaky cam. mini/smile

Re: The Profession

What I said on youtube.

"Surpassed my expectations. Oh wow, the lighting was freaking awesome. Like in 3:17.

Animation was tip top as usual. Pretty much the highpoints, story was a little weak, but I'd love if you did a sequel or a prequel as to why he was in that line of work.

I loved it"

Every second.

You amaze me...

Re: The Profession

Brilliant work, the animation was stunning, and the sets were so... elegant. Really enjoyed that.

Re: The Profession

the lighting was great. And such a great story too. Very enjoyable.

Re: The Profession

Wow, the animation throughout was amazing. (The fight scene was fantastic.) This is one of the best Dramatic brickfilms I have ever seen. The storyline also helped turn this from the usual "Person kills bad guy" into something quite amazing.
