City Of Dissidence Progress and First post! (HAPPY THANKSGIVING)
All right, so this is my first post in my blog. I guess i’ll just nail down some info on what exactly “City Of Dissidence” is. COD (abbreviation for the films title) is an animated LEGO film I have been working on for the last 3 months or so. So far 2 minutes and 5 seconds has been filmed, and a whole minute has been disgarded because I decided it didn’t fit well with the plot of the film. I spent alot of time on the intro sequence, and am pleased to announce it’s possibly one of my most cinematic pieces I have ever made. Everything from the score to the visuals seems in place. This film will take some time to make, because school is a huge distraction, and I want to maintain good grades. I am not used to making dramatic films, for I usually lean towards the comedic side, so I want to spend a good amount of time on the aspects other brickfilmers (LEGO animators ) use as reference to build a well done film.
I have finished the intro, and a little of the first scene so far. Production is going smoothly. Also, alot of my viewers have mentioned my films would improve a good bit if all of the characters voices were not only voiced by me. I’ve all ready voiced the intro, but I plan to delete the audio and ask other brickfilmers to help me out there. The only problem with this is that I usually record my voices after, usually timing my voices with the time counter in stopmotionpro. So now I will have to ask my compadres over at bricksinmotion.com to not only record voices for my film, but to record them within the timing of 2-3 or 4-5 seconds. That will be interesting. :/
Thanks for tuning in, I hope you’ll check back soon! If you want to check out more of my films, please go to youtube and search tomtom0919. My videos should come up.
