Romance Needs No Words - BOTW #18

This week I have found myself looking at the most wide range of films I've ever seen in one week. That's mainly due to the fact that there hasn't really been a contest on, apart from rebrick.com's 'Show Us An AFOL*' which was only released later in the week. I am excited to show you all the different varieties of films, so let's start!
3.Spaceman Frank - backyardlegos. This is what I mean when I say there is a variety of films this week, and this one may be the most strange unique. Even though the film is short, it's pleasing and makes you laugh. The animation is good, and it's actually a pretty good limerick (if there is such a thing). I wish this kind of humorous poetry was made more into brickfilms, because it's very clever and a great idea. It would also give a chance for brickfilmers to be creative in a short space of time.
2.AFOL Date - thefourmonkeys4. This is an entry to Rebrick's 'Show Us An AFOL' competition, and was only just released when I started writing this. I like the animation and the set design, and it's a worthy entrant to the competition. I think that the storyline is fine, but it could have benefited from a bit of a twist.  Thefourmonkeys create such a variety of films, often, and all of good quality. Well done Monkeys!
1.Love In Black and White - Walter Benson. Walter hasn't uploaded a video for months, since his attempt at THAC X (which he only came 40th at - which I thought was outrageous). I love the story, and although it may have been lengthy - for a brickfilm - was good the way it is. I also liked the animation, although it wasn't perfect. But my favourite part was the set-design. Walter is well known on  Flickr for his amazing sets, and I love how he incorporates the sets into his brickfilms as well as his photos. I really like the park gates, and because of his large Lego collection, he can incorporate lots of detail into small things. I love this video, and I just hope there isn't another 7 Month gap between this and his next one!

Garbage Truck Demolition - BOTW #4

Yes, it's time for another post. Only 5 films this week, but that's making my life easier. On to the judging.
3.Lego ReBrick Contest Entry - ZachFBStudios. This was an amazing entry to the ReBrick Lego Movie Competition. I really liked the music, the animation, the craft they built, this would be a perfect entry to the ReBrick competition. Watch out for it in the Warner Bros. movie next February!
2.Build-A-Base - a repelling spider. This was the ReBrick entry that I thought had the most time put into it. Repelling spider also went for the garbage truck, like ZachFB and BrotherhoodWorkshop, but this was a very unique creation. Personally, I am excited because now I have loads of things I could turn my garbage truck into! Only one entry has been put through so far (that I know of), bionicle28's, but I also feel that this has the potential to get included.
1.The LEGO Movie ReBrick Competition Entry - thefourmonkeys4. Woah. This is a really good entry. Personally, I found this had amazing animation quality, the best out of this week's videos, and also they transformed a normal red car into a fully posable bionicle creature. I find it slightly unclear about why the man was angry, though, but a lot of these entries didn't fully follow the fact that they had to do that because there was an object blocking them or something like that. Well. Yeah. Another week gone, and more brickfilms. Sigh, it's been a good week.

May The Chocolate Be With You - BOTW #1

This week has been a pretty exciting week for brickfilmers, as the new EASTER 2013 animation challenge on bricksinmotion.com has been set. Also, April Fools Day inspired a couple animations. So I had a hard choice to decide this, but I came up with my favourite three.

MunchySquid's Replacement Montage is my first choice. Many people entered the Replacement animation contest, like TheFourMonkeys4, but Harrison Allen, who is the founder of AnnoyingNoisesInc., produced a unique entry that experimented with lighting as well as other cleverly used techniques.

ZachMG's Skyfall Clip is my second. ZachMG doesn't produce content often, but when it does come out, the quality is always immaculate (This has led his subscriber amount to 30,000!). He doesn't always participate in animation challenges, but he has his own website he participates to, MotionPXL.

TheFourMonkeys Easter Entry is my third and final. TheFourMonkeys like to enter animation challenges on bricksinmotion.com. They seem to make one video a week, which is hard and time consuming. But even though they have full time jobs, they still have time to spend on their passion, brickfilming!
