I'm making a stop-motion warriors movie with my figures and other stuff. I'll have it on Youtube when it's done. Just thought you'd all like to know.

Sounds awesome Rem! Makes me wish I had a few Warriors action figures! Can't wait to see the final result! :D

Well here's an update for those who care....

I just finished shooting the "stick together" conversation, except in my version (because they're toys that have been left outside, they are in the backyard, also, I took out the cussing because this s a school project, not to mention I took out some lines that only relate to the situation in the movie i.e. "except every cop in the city is looking to bust our heads.")

I'm using all 6 figs, regardless of their gang they are al together in ths one. But anyways the one section, which after I edit it will only be a few minutes long, took about an hour and a half because of the whole stop-motion process and the amount of detail in the positioning and lighting (shooting at night outdoors is kinda annoying). I even have an out of focus CLeon (he's my replacement Snow) moving behind Ajax when t is suggested that Ajax take the lead. its hard stop-motioning many objects which are onscreen at once, but it looks great, as I mentioned before I copied the film shot for shot, and I'm just going to use parts of the audio track.

Next: the orphans bit! Tomorrow evening I'll do the louder parts (so I don't wake anybody up, its 12:15 AM as I'm writing this) like the chase scene and the bathroom fight.

The jealous toys will get their revenge on the ultra cool Warriors figurines tonight!

Seems like it's coming along quite well then. I'm starting to think about if I could ever pull off something like that. How are you doing buildings and the bathroom scene? Do you have models for that or what? Keep us posted!

Well I finished the orphans scene last ngiht...jeez this stuff takes WAY too long. I start every ngiht excited for what I'm goignt o film, and end it wanting to burn everything down because the    process        takes        so      long.


But it takes place in a house, and i choose localles and background sin my house that can provide some interesting sights. And plus 90% of the time the bg is out of focus, so yeah.

And though I don't want to ruin it, the bathroom scene takes place in my bathroom. The bad guy action figs roll up on a skateboard, get out, go in, and Warriors figs bust out of everywhere -- the cupboard, the medicine cabinet, the toilet, everywhere! I also replaced the spray can with the leader being sprayed with water from the tap -- same sound effect.

And when a dozen plastic cowboys and indians come around all holding a huge kitchen knife....."YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET WARRIORS? YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU MESS WITH THE ORPHANS??"

I'm dreading the upcoming chase scene though.
