My First Minifig Build Sequence Test

[Playwell Bricks]

As you may know, if you read me topic in the Academy sub-forum, I started a Youtube channel about a month ago aimed at teaching kids how to build with Lego, Playwell Bricks.

My first idea was to have a stop motion sequence for comic effect then a wacky real time video with the minifig telling "Mr. Big Hands" how to build the set. The real time video section needed a face lift so I changed it up for a full stop motion build. This is my first whack at it.

I am just a novice at Stop Motion (if you follow the general film topic I posted you will understand that), but I must say I impressed myself with this little segment.

Constructive criticism always welcome!

You did a good job here. Your camera-static shots are well animated, the moving camera shots have a very shaky feel to them so you might want to work on smoothing that out. I see a lot of improvement from your first try

Thanks for the input Darkdragon. I think I have to look at getting a better desktop tripod. Right now I have a cheap plastic thing that is hard to re-position which is most likely the culprit with the shakiness. I can edit it out of the really shaky frames, but it would be much easier if I had a better tripod.
