THAC 7: The Camera

I made it to the top 30, but did not make it to the top 15 by voting.

My entry to THAC7.
I made it in less than 24 hours.
I am Buge on BiM but Bugefun on many other places, but bugeman0 on YouTube.
LegoStarWarsGuy helped by voicing in it.
It is called The Camera. The mod element in the old camera scenes could be iffy in a few of the frames, because only part of the S/5, or 2 is visible, but you can see that it is there.
The rest of the frames all have mod elements. Right when he walks out of the door, you can see the yellow hand on the black arm, and when the Mega Block covers the camera, you can just barely see the yellow of the hand attached to the black camera.
This was shot using two different cameras. The old camera look was achieved without any editing or software. The old camera is the Logitech QucickCam Express from 1999, so that is why it is grainy and blury. Even though it is a color camera, it is black and white, not because of any video editing software, nor because I had the saturation low (it was at the default) but because I opened it up and modded the camera. You will notice that the red LEGO bricks are actually whiter than white ones with this camera. The vignetting in the top corners is also genuine, because apparently, when putting it together, I didn't line it up correctly. It is shaky, because I was holding the camera with my left hand, while animating and grabbing frames with my right, and that is kind of intentional.
Oh, and the audio is in stereo as a little extra. Sound should sound like it is coming from the left or right.

I might as well tell you about the camera, it isn't really a secret. I made it an infra red camera. It only detects infra red light. This is (to the best of my knowledge) the first infra red brickfilm.
I was going to use this for Avant Garde, but I have something much more radical.

Winner of Best Comedy, Best Animation, and Best Overall in the L.G.F.B Brickfilm Contest!

How are Mega Blocks bad? Sometimes I use them in my films.

[bugeman0]

@SunnySnowStudios Well, they don't stick together as well. Also they are a competitor to LEGO, so that is why the LEGO characters don't like them.
