Minecraft the Lego Movie Making of

Many of you have been asking and requesting to make me in behind the screen and video making off and how this minecraft wood comes together so I’ve been telling you for a long time I will do it I will do it but fortunately I was

Not doing it but now it’s about the time to reveal some some images some videos that have been I’ve been filming doing animation I’ve been filming what I’m what I’m doing how I’m doing it so with Minecraft there has never been a real well when I started there was no

Real real story made for Minecraft out of Minecraft they were er the web animations and made within the game or other animations but it was all kind of stories but I never looked into them and and mainly because I didn’t want to influence myself because I’ve seen some

Kind of animations when they were there was an egg or something and always like breaking all the rules of Minecraft and well I had my Lego I could not 3d animator you know I can’t do that but I don’t like that it’s just for me boring

Process to sit the whole time behind the computer and click objects and and do it so that that’s why I chose to go again with with Lego and make out of Minecraft and Lego ball seats you have sets it was very easy because you have stiff and

Late-game Alex and you have the zombies creepers so and I knew I can if I do that with Lego I can keep up weekly and something I’ve been doing always with Turtles and Star Wars so why not with Minecraft and now you have the set and

Reason was that I I had like idea I’m gonna let me let me make an animation like make series out of how I play myself back up how I play survival and how I feel about didn’t for me I felt creepy about it especially when the

Night that the evening was also in the very first episode Steve enters the cave and finds creeper there and he’s looking at him and then that was something really out of the game when I played in the very first weeks of my craft you get

Into a cave and it’s dark and some kind of freaky creeper is looking at you and it keep staring at you but he cannot come to you because he was on the other side of the cave there was a whole gap in between but and it was far away so he

Keeps staring at me and I was like yeah it’s creepy so I got away from the cave but in the movie I waited more dramatically that the creeper comes after him and he is running away and from there on it moves on you built your house like I did then and you start

Digging and well what else you you and adventure but there isn’t much adventure in my opinion it’s like when I play the game you build you build but you know it’s creepy it’s scary but where is the adventure and wait but can what can I do

To do to bake it in adventure you can look for villages villages and go to the end but yeah that’s basic that would have been boring to make a movie route you know about Steve about Steve building his house collecting his resources and then okay well it’s time

To go to the nether and see what’s happening there always you can go to the end world let’s let’s beat the dragon and that’s it you know and maybe help some villagers or maybe recover some zombie village but that’s not enough that had to be stolen but to also do

That you had to break a lot of rules and you’re some of you are saying I it’s a mistake it’s a mistake of course it’s a mistake and some of them like the building creeper a system missing it’s of course a mistake because sometimes I

Come with an idea like it would be cool you know to starter the episode with the burning creeper and then he’s dead and then we can then we have the opening sequence but then it’s a mistake I haven’t seen it I I have played a lot magnified not enough to know everything

About it and sometimes you don’t see certain things so you make mistake but that’s okay because it’s a movie that doesn’t has to be right I cannot recall if somebody seen and absolutely correct the movie about the topic that it’s trying to explain it’s always different always

Made it more cinematic and and the forest offer to tell the story you need to break rules and that’s what I’m doing he looked at the way that he that Steve meets a Ben it it doesn’t happen on the game it might it does happen when you play multiplayer you could have these

Situations but not the survival mode so this is the beginning of the helpline for example which it’s a myth you know he’s there he’s not that I know I don’t know I I cannot I don’t know it’s not saying his real they are saying it’s not

Real well he is in the movie you know to make it interesting and he is very real in there in the movie then you have other characters they all bring together they all bring their own piece of story together it makes one big story and that’s how how the movie came together

And that lead us into the the second movie which is being made at the moment in a spot of single episode so many of you were wondering what is this is the animations of motion and this is stop-motion and what is top motion it’s literally taking an image of

What you’re doing so I’m moving an object that a Lego figure in this this case and make a picture then make another small movement to it like this arm is like whatever I need to make another picture and together that that makes an fluid motion of movement walking running talking whatever they

Are doing it’s all so think of it that for every second of your seeing I had to make 15 pictures I move the image 50 pictures sometimes I copy the frames when they are stopped because they would move constantly Buddha just too fast so don’t you need to slow down but

Generally it’s always 15 movements each second if you want to see more how it comes together I’ve made a movie about this it’s called lego animator there’s a link to it in the description so if you haven’t seen it go check it out it’s kind of funny and funny where you see

How you can stop motion actually very basic just doesn’t go end up what I’m really using camera in the figure that’s it but there is much more to it you need to software gather with your camera to capture the image what I basically do is

Hook up the camera with a USB cable to my computer and use the software so-called dragon flame that that allows me to capture the images from the camera by pressing a button and I can preview what type did and go back and forth and add and delete

Frames copy frames I’d sound so I can animate on to sound so whenever they talking or in this case they mmmm-mmm they do talk but with my mouth closed so some of you were saying I okay if you listen closely you can follow them which is true because the words are spoken

Only they are with the mouth closed and the reason why I do that is because this is a weekly series and it’s kind of chaotic too to keep up with everything and and if I had to rely on voice actors then that would be very complicated for

Me I know how it is like projects like Star Wars or Turtles then it’s it’s very important to have good voice actors and all of them are great but I cannot expect them expect from them like do it now you know it’s tomorrow has to be done and because tomorrow I’m going to

Film it and to dat it didn’t there are moments where I literally write one day before what I’m going to do I know the storyline out but I haven’t written any everything yet fully on paper not all the dialogue I I haven’t sheet with what I know okay episode this will happen

This and this and this but there is not always dialogue for certain episode and that happens sometimes day before so if I have to send something to voice actor who might be at the time sleeping because I’m living in Germany they live in America so it’s different times up I

Will never have it on time because I need the sound before I start animating not after otherwise I cannot synchronize it to cannot synchronize the movement to the the mumbling in this case so that’s why I chose to do it my off so I know I can always make it five

Minutes before I start animating em and I know it’s there and not wait wait wait wait and so that’s why they mumble well I mean that’s not really that’s why they mumble actually is because as well I don’t feel that my voice acting I’m comfortable with and beside it would be

Feel it will sound boring for every character every five characters and six characters sound the same or a little bit different by by adjusting the pitch but I might try that in the following episodes in the following season and the third season I’m considering doing that

Although some of you do like mumbling so I don’t know really what to do on the other side I would like to leave it and let you read but maybe maybe let me know in the comments what you prefer yellow and I will take a look at it maybe I

Will do try out and then after that we can look further and what shall we do you know mumbling go on with mumbling or shall I really voice acting in the series the many of you asked how much leg or do I have how many sets well I

Most of the sets I own double and some of them triple but the artists that I only once in a beginner molded the first steps that came out I almost of them double triple the sense that came after a little bit less and the sense that came recently I haven’t bought many of

Them only the two strong whole sets and actually everything except that the jungle I own because I don’t see the jungle being necessary at the moment it will be necessary in the third season but for the moment I I don’t need it so I leave it

But all those sets is not enough to create the world that I that I had that I’m doing because yeah they come with a limited amount of brixon you need it more more more so I started buying from brick link and I started around Episode

Six and once I did that I felt like there is suddenly a big freedom of creating a world so you really see in episode 6 the the freedom and the size I could create within with with the bricks that I suddenly had I’m making a big hill and I think that that episode

Really showed how how big you can go with what I have but that’s that episode six we are now episode 44 and well episode 44 is going to be released this Friday which I’m editing at the moment but you get I get every time bigger and bigger and bigger but my desk is

Actually limited in size but still I I try to make bigger hills and stuff so there’s always need for more bricks but at some point I also have to say you know it’s enough you cannot keep constantly buying and buying because yeah you know it’s madness keep on buying stuff to photobomb but

This is what I would like to share with you and I’m sure you have much more questions how you do this how you do that or what about this what about that well you can you can put your questions and everything in the comments and perhaps I will make another one making

Off I think after the second movie then we can go more in depth about other things or on spirit questions of course but for now is this this is what I like to share with you and well this will probably result more and more questions

That I have to answer to you but that’s fine therefore I am I like that further point I would like to add that I’m going to be more active on the channel so meaning that I have starts to doing building some sets showing some sets from Lego Mega Bloks so not really y’all

Refuse not really review I will take the set and maybe will show maybe you know how I can play with it and and how you can make animation of it like what’s my idea of inspiration about this said you know for example I will take a set with

The cavity but for example a car from from you have a car and what kind of ideas you can come up with with this car you know maybe this will give you some ideas inspiration to make your own animation or incorporate in your own play with with the toys because I know

Not of not all of you are adults here or teenagers were still a lot of kids here still play with it but even adults play with it like kids so well ok for now that’s it this Friday another episode episode 44 and then in two weeks again but in

Between I will upload some some sets and build up some Lego set and also many of them will be build up to another animations that I want to do it’s not only that I will do a my craft but there are some other things that I want to do

And therefore I bought several sets and I will show them so to keep you busy on the channel and I think that’s that’s for the more that’s that’s ok it it doesn’t take me so much time to do but I think it does help to I stay close with the audience

Ok so for now that’s it every nice day and then see you Friday with episode 44
