Lego Batman Episode 1

[babylon218]

That was actually pretty good. Nice job.

Part 4. Also, Batman already did do something funny to his goons so that part of dialogue doesn't even make sense. The only other thing I can think of is that you made some of the scenes feel pretentious. The dialogue with two-face and Gordon near the end are what I really mean by this. The animation is good though. This has nothing to do with the little battle that you and Daniel3cb are having at the moment. This is my opinion and I hope you understand that this is to improve your work. End.

Part 3. The characters should be introduced in a way where people that don't know what batman is, won't need to rely on that knowledge to understand your story. If it is a continuation of a series, it would be fine, but it is a new series to my knowledge. You also need to know how to handle exposition carefully. I'm specifically talking about the hostage talk that two-face was doing. To be continued.

Part 2. Don't use the fog effect every time. If you want to make scenes harder to see then make a thick fog to cover the entire screen. This thick fog should be see-able as well. In order to do that, I suggest you change the alpha of the fog to a very low number. It has to be less than 50%. Another problem I had was the fire explosions. If a fire is on the screen then some sort of lighting should make it feel like it isn't an effect. The story seemed to have some problems too. To be continued...

@BionTimeWorks Wait hold on One question. have you every made a lego batman stopmotion? or any stop motion for that matter? Have yo ever tried to put together a lego batman video with a few minifigures, two white boxes as buildings, a green screen and sony vegas? I'm open to constructive criticism but I'm not open to nitpicking. Also This is a 6 min video about lego. I'm not trying to make a deep story that has many twist and turns.

[BionTimeWorks]

@legoindyshortround I have done stop motion. Look at my bionicle stopmotion videos if you don't believe me. I haven't done lego stopmotion but I thought that the animation was good in part four of my comments. I didn't even say anything about the way you animated the episode either in this comment. Also there is nothing wrong with having a good story. Its fine if you weren't aiming for story, then that's fine. I had justifications for my criticism so I wasn't nit-picking.

[BionTimeWorks]

Please take the this as constructive criticism. The first problem I have is the blue aesthetic choice you made. If you want to make scenes look dark, you still need lighting to contrast the dark values. Place lighting on the important parts that you want the audience to see. You also don't need to make every scene to have dark shadows to make your series feel dark and atmospheric. What happens in a scene can also be dark and atmospheric as well. This is part one of my constructive criticism.

[TheDeepestblue14]

Haha, danielc3b's parody of this is fucking funny

[pcjordan23]

To be honest man I love the dark blue tone, It actually adds a Batman like feel to it.

[Verathrax]

There a difference between the scene being atmospheric, and having to squint through the fog to see whats happening every five seconds. Thats why daniel3cb skipped through the vid

[legoindyshortround]

@Verathrax There's a difference between being able to see and being blind. daniel3cb thinks hes better then everybody else. your just agreeing with him because hes daniel3cb like alot of people.

[Verathrax]

@legoindyshortround Actually i'm not agreeing with daniel becuase he's "daniel3cb." I'm agreeing with him becuase he's adressing a critical point that with a little editing, could be fixed for future episodes. I havent watched a video of daniel3cbs in months.

[daniel3cb]

@Verathrax thats cuz i havent uploaded a video in months, NOW i have watched all of this video and i must say,whole hostage thing was discussed by the henchmen then braught up again by 2 face 5 seconds later and then batman shows up and he runs away, he didnt even use the hostages for his advantage, and then at the end gordon gives that dark knight ending speach for nothing, feels like in all that time we spoke on skype, u didnt listen to me once

[Verathrax]

@daniel3cb Whyd u reply to me? ive never talkled to u on skype. haha

[daniel3cb]

@Verathrax i was joinin the conversation

[Verathrax]

@daniel3cb Lol ok guys this has gone far enough, the constructive critisism was ok but the parody was (though funny) a little soon.

[legoindyshortround]

@daniel3cb well hey, I'm not the one who removed you on skype because of the whole me getting other voice actors ordeal.

[TheBluePhoenix2]

@legoindyshortround no it is hard to see i know batman is ment too be dark but this is kinda too dark

[legoindyshortround]

@TheBluePhoenix2 well did you watch in HD?

[daniel3cb]

@legoindyshortround oh please its standard defonition u just rendered it as HD thinking it WAS HD, and i removed u from skype cuz u said i was " fired" and i thouight if i was fired then i dont want my ex boss constanly ringing me ever day

[legoindyshortround]

@daniel3cb 720p makes the image way more clear and visible. and right after that i told you but we can still talk on facebook and skype. then like a min later you remove me off everything.

[TheBluePhoenix2]

@legoindyshortround yeah just try tuning the brightness a litlle keep it dark but just it would make it even better

[quentin77340]

Awesome ! Well, i like the blue screen, we don't see alot of details, but it add good effect ! Love it ! :D

[dreadwing2020]

i dont mind the blue btw awesome :D

[goku43651]

that was complete awesomeness you really brought out how batman is really thanks for a great video

[NightSlash2020Jr]

NICE!!

[Matt360UK]

Nicely done it really blue me away. All puns aside it was great, the blue offered a nice effect to show it's night but maybe if the filter was darker blue or you added more gray scale to compliment it then no one would have brought it up. Keep up the good work, I'm planning to do a Lego Justice League stop motion at some point and I doubt it it'll be anywhere near as good as this.

[ShadowElite217]

I forgot how awesome your stop motions are and how long its been since then.

[legoindyshortround]

@ShadowElite217 thanks. i forgot it was all they way back in September i posted my last biggish project. Damn that was like five or six months ago.

[ShadowElite217]

@legoindyshortround I know still awesome can't wait for another transformers one though, those are my favorite.

[LarryStudios]

Way too blue'ish. The plot is interesting, the animation is ok, but the blue color kinda ruined it for me. I mean the idea was great but yeah too much blue.

[legoindyshortround]

@LarryStudios I'm sure you'd want it to be very bright and fake looking i take it.

[Sonic7895]

Subbed for the epicness!

[legoindyshortround]

@Sonic7895 thanks

[jsautobot101]

EPIC !!

[legoindyshortround]

@jsautobot101 thanks

[vfortune1]

I wouldn't have used taht much fog, but over all it was pretty cool. TDKR will be EPIC.

[TFfanAntrozix]

deadly :)!!

[legoindyshortround]

@TFfanAntrozix thanks

[crosshairs001]

loved it, thank you for making me a part of this, i am inspired! :D :D

[BlockBusterStudios1]

Epic! But I think you went very crazy with the fog and blueness! :D But I guess you were trying to set a mood for this...

[legoindyshortround]

The weird thing is some of you are complaining that its blue and dark but seriously batman's not suppose to be bright colored. Its suppose to be dark and atmospherics.

[hannahandyjane]

don't you have the dark knight barman? Because I see the Lego tumbler

[legoindyshortround]

@hannahandyjane i lost it.

[hannahandyjane]

epicness nice one old friend

[legoindyshortround]

@hannahandyjane thank you

[thecurseofmagic]

All I could think of during this video is I'm blue da da de dee da da da

[decepticon365]

FUCKING EPIC

[TFanPage101]

I can not wait for The Dark Knight Rises, awesome video man ps I just uploaded a shout out video with your name in it so I hop that helps. Also I have to ask you something but I'll message you tommorow

[legoindyshortround]

@TFanPage101 thanks for the shout out!

[DOWSOE]

impressive as always !

[legoindyshortround]

@DOWSOE Thank you

[daniel3cb]

this is like annoyingly blue just cant see anything u went to far with the colour grade

[legoindyshortround]

@daniel3cb thats the only thing you have to say about it. only negative stuff?

[daniel3cb]

@legoindyshortround well after i saw that the blueness wasnt going to change i immediately got bored and skipped through it 

[legoindyshortround]

@daniel3cb really? so you haven't even watched the full video yet.

[daniel3cb]

@legoindyshortround nah

[crosshairs001]

@daniel3cb unfair that you didnt give the video a chance just because of the blue filter - its a pilot episode, so how about instead of just ignoring it you give some feedback?

[MaxRossLinden]

I'm so proud of this!!! =D

Thanks again for letting me part of this, I can't wait to work on episode 2!

[joffresito123]

kool but i cant see dude
