5 Tips for Making an AWESOME Fight Scene (Tutorial) | Brickology Stop Motion

5 Tips for Making an AWESOME Fight Scene (Tutorial) | Brickology Stop Motion
Recently, I posted a fight scene video between Punisher Captain America and The Mandalorian. That video started off as practice and developed into something bigger, which was pretty cool to see.
As with every film I make here, I try to improve on some aspect of my stop motion technique. In this particular film, I found myself focusing on 5 things in general, and this tutorial covers those in more detail.
I hope these tips will help you create a more fluid, dynamic, and intense fight scene!

Hey Thomas, I’m so glad you liked my latest brickfilm as I spent sooooooo long on it. My whole week I did about 2 - 6 hours a day as well as fitting my school work in so I’m glad it paid off 😃😃😃

[@Brickology]

Congratulations on your great work ethic, that really takes a lot of work and commitment - you should be really proud of yourself! I have no doubt that you’re going to be a truly great creator 😃

[@snoopy1866]

Yeah that IS commitment dude, much more than I have😅

Hi Thomas, could you do a tutorial on how to structure fight scenes? What I mean by this is who hits who when and how to script/storyboard it?

[@roundbrick696]

Hey Thomas this was an amazing tutorial. I need your help, I want to do stop motion but I don’t know what I want to make it about and. I can’t pick a topic. can you help?

[@Brickology]

When I started making brickfilms, I wrote about what I know. I’m a nurse, so I made a bunch of medical films. As Time went on I started making more diverse content. But when I’m stuck, I always go back to what I know. So ask yourself... What is it that you’re interested in? Movies? Music? Are you a student? What funny stories happened at school? At home? That’s where I’d personally start 😊

I would just adjust how the one who gets punched reacts. Smaller punches may get smaller reactions. 👍

[@olga6524]

Please if you can make more tutorials. 🙏

[@Wastydest]

Great Tutorial! I am looking forward to using these tips, when I am starting my own Brickfilms. But I wanted to ask: isn't it possible to ad the camera movements in editing, while also getting closer with the camera? I'm pretty sure I have seen someone do it in a tutorial. Do you have any experience in that area and can you say if you would recommend directly filming the movement, or ad it in post?

[@Brickology]

Thank you for watching! And that’s great that you’re wanting to make your own films! Have you one planned out? Regarding your question, yes you can absolutely do the movements in the computer! I like doing them while filming because it has a certain look and feel to it. Whenever I can do things without the computer, that’s what I shoot for. It always teaches me something and is good practice. If all else fails, I’ll use the computer for the effect 😊👍.

[@Wastydest]

@@Brickology I see. Thank's for the quick response! Your channel is awesome! :D I already made some small test videos, but I am writing on several Star Wars Brickfilms. It's just gonna take a while for me to make them, because there is so much stuff to learn and I barely have time. Also my Legos are at my parents home and I study in a different city. I am aiming to make my first proper Brickfilm in the first half of this year though :)

To make a sound you just need your phone and the voice recorder. Then use it in your video!
