The Ultimate Lego Beowulf

Before you ask, yes. This was for a school project. For those of you who don't know the story of Beowulf, here's a brief summary:

The Danes are doing well, so the king (Hrothgar) builds a great hall to celebrate. Then a monster (Grendel) attacks it. Beowulf, a Geat, comes to save the Danes from danger and kills Grendel. Then Grendel's mother comes and kills one person. Beowulf follows her to her home (underwater, in a lake), and kills her. Then, Hrothgar dies. and Beowulf becomes king of the Danes. Then, a new dragon shows up and starts devouring peasants. Beowulf goes to fight him, but dies in the process.

@rafaelbisinoti we just finished reading beowulf and we had the option of writing a paper on it or making a movie of it.

what did you use for a stand what did you put your camera on? cuz i have probs in my vids with puting my camera on something

[StanTheLegoMan]

@wwesleyblade I usually put all the legos and stuff on a table and have a tripod on the ground that reaches the hight of the table. But sometimes, the tripod isn't even necessary and I end up just taping the camera to the table.

This was simply amazing! I just showed my class your vid, and we were wondering what animation software/program you used to piece it altogether? Did you use a PC or Mac?
