Marooned

This is my entry to a competition called Tales Of Yore (TOY). The theme was to make something rooted/set/linked to historical events. It won first place, getting me a £240 stop motion program.
Mine's based on how pirates would maroon one another. The pirate was taken to a tiny desert island, where he was given a pistol with one shot and normally a bottle of water which would last him a day. Then he'd either starve slowly to death, or he could put himself out of his misery with the pistol, but by doing that he would damn his soul.

what program did you win?

[legoheadbond]

@LOTRTotalwarMan It was called dragon stop motion but the company have since changed the name to dragon frame.

Nice animation! =D So you use 20fps, but how do you make it so epic? Do you take very many pics for a small movement or do you use any after effects? Awesome brick film =) I subbed

[legoheadbond]

@theLEGOtastic Thanks, 20fps is a good frame rate when you practise with it, and get to use it more. Before this I used 15fps, and I'm hoping to move up to 25fps for my future work!

That was in one of the newer pirate sets, either the raft with the octopus or the little set with a pirate cooking a fish over a fire.
