Senna Trailer in Lego Stopmotion (HD)

This is the trailer for the Ayrton Senna Movie being made by Working title that will be released in the UK from Friday 3rd June 2011.

I have cut most of the Japanese voiceover out, because I felt it didn't add too much to the story. It took me about 5/6 weeks to animate it on my desk, so certain sections will look slightly cheap. The captions that appear in the middle of the video are not translations from the japanese trailer, they are ones I added in that I thought would fit. (I can't speak/understand Japanese.)

I had fun making this though, and I hope you enjoy watching it.

This is not a video making fun of Senna or any of his contempories. (Okay, maybe just Balestre.) This is purely an attempt to animate the trailer in a different format. I have not shown the footage of Senna's fatal crash because I'd expect people would have wanted a warning, and I felt that it was too brutal to be put in. I apologise if this offends anyone.

P.S. The audio is all copyright of Working Title Films and Universal pictures. The footage in the monaco tunnel is off the Game "F1 2001" and is Copyright EA sports.

This was awesome! Great job. Keep it up dude. I recommend everyone to see the movie. It should win an Oscar for best documentary. RIP Senna.

@johnulianov Thanks. I am working on a new Lego racing stopmotion project which should be done before Christmas. I also really liked the movie, I will get it on DVD when it comes out tommorrow on October 10th. I think it's certainly oscar worthy, I would go as far to say it's one of my favourite movies of all time, and certainly my favourite documentary of all time.

Great video but where is the YELLOW HELMET? 

[GeriatricFan1963]

@Rionaldo I don't know...I should have painted it Yellow. But I made the visor yellow instead, is that okay?

Looks like Alain Prost visited that video

[GeriatricFan1963]

@Mateusfsxrc3phun I saw the movie about a fortnight ago...I think that Prost must have given his approval for it to be made...I could have given him a nicer sweater in this, but all I had was plastic.

I was trying to find an HD trailer for this movie I can't wait to see, and came across your vid. To be honest I was kind of expecting something rather retarded, or perhaps disrespectful.

You did an amazing job, I even laughed when I saw Jean-Marie Balestre.

Also, thanks for not showing the crash scene.
