Grace

Travis and Cecil learn the difference between Fame and Glory in this action-drama.
Filmed 6/7/06 through 7/17/06 as an entry for the Fame, Infamy and Glory contest, Grace is my second big Brickfilm. It received first place out of 13 films.
It was my most difficult film to animate (thus far), and is one of my first attempts at using dialogue. I experimented further with camera movement, dramatic lighting, music composition, story telling, and title-card placement, so I'm pretty happy.
It was finished in a slightly rushed manner, due to the deadline, but I can't complain, as the deadline is also what motivated me to finish. Such is life.
A big thanks goes to my voice actors-you made this movie come alive.
Enjoy!

This is a masterpeice. Its a shame you haven't gotten the full recognition you deserve..

[@SpaceFilmStudios]

1 minute into vid = O.O 2 minute into vid = O.O 5 minute into vid = O.O 10 minute into vid = O.O This is the best lego animation I've ever seen!

[@IamBrickMotion]

Wow this brickfilm is amazing!!! It really brings me back to the old brickfilming days when they felt more about story than any do now.

[@cretofoliamoonfilms9905]

BrickMotion I'm working on films right now and would love to make material that has story and not just plain story

[@ryanfilmsanimationyt]

sure does!

[@historyarmyproductions]

Complex stories take skill. They are hard to pull off. But, when you do, you *really* do. You get masterpieces, like this.

[@TheBrickBro]

Half way through and this is insane, especially for how old it is! We need more films like these

[@DaAznThug]

So much better than forrestfire video

One of the Best brickfilms ever.

[@ironics2424]

The greatest brickfilm of all time in my opinion.

[@buggobricks]

I wish that I’d found this back when I was a kid, it’s a really great movie.

[@k9markiii]

best fight animatyion ever

[@NeemaFahimy]

this is and always will be my favorite brickfilm of all time.

[@mitlermawham]

very nice.great angles, great sound, great motion, great story, great movie. One day I will make a better movie, but until then I will just keep trying.

[@brickabash9344]

One classic Brickfilm and one of my favourites

[@crazylegoman]

I still have the DVD with all the entries from the contest this was in. Those were the gool ol'days!

[@CalmaxFilm]

Still awesome 13 years later

[@ReinforceJunior]

probably THE best lego film I have ever seen

[@liverlarke7627]

A classic, one to be remembered by me for as long as I live

[@displeased-cat]

Just came back cause i still remember how I first saw it as a child. One of the best stop motions I have ever seen on here

[@blockmaster54]

this movie rock like hell, that the best thing ive ever seen on youtube man. u rock

[@miggy558]

whoa this must be filmed at 30 fps right? Dude your an amazing brickfilmer, better than me. Awesome video.

[@yermaan]

Dude...SAME NAME! And I live in Cork! Awesomeness...

[@TheMeEvan]

whoa, supremely impressive.

[@DMlegostudios]

best action film ive ever seen 5 star!!!!!!!!!

[@slippery00]

Why doesn't this have over 1 million views?

[@11338325]

A very good brickfilm Robinson, I'd consider it a classic. I have to say, though, that Cecil was my least favorite character. Even though he killed Darcy, he was basically willing to kill to get the Phoenix Badge and even after Travis gave him the badge, he went after Travis. However, it was still a good film. Do you think you'll do a remake of this? I personally would love to see a story which includes more background information, such as why Cecil and Travis have their feud, how Fabron developed the suit Travis wears, just to give us a little insight.

[@ryanfilmsanimationyt]

This is such a good story, which matters more than anything!

[@LegoLoverFilms]

That was one of the greatest brickfilms ever. Animation: whoa ... Story: Amazing ... Cinematography: Awesomely Crazy ...Fight scenes: whoa. Overall, I give it a 5/5. Keep up the good work!

[@brickmasterstudio9962]

This is awesome! I have no idea how I missed this all these years, amazing job!

[@SverreSA]

this is one of the greates lego movies ever made! But please respond on this questions: How did you make them float in the air? and what camera did you use?

[@MovieStudio620]

Wow. This was awesome. You are very good brickfilmer!

[@11338325]

Cecil is truly heartless. All he cares about is getting the Phoenix Badge. He didn't even care that a guy had been shot and fatally wounded, he was also willing to practically murder his own friend. I'm glad he died in the end

[@diegobareno5820]

What is the Phoenix Badge supposed to be anyway?

[@oblivionaire8730]

this vid change me forever-KJ my favorite vid....

[@Raidmasterprod]

This movie could easily be made into a feature film and it would be acclaimed, possibly even win an Academy Award!

[@yermaan]

The best brickfilm eveah.

[@Tellmeimaninja]

Best overall (let alone lego) movie I've seen in a while. sometimes 5 stars are not enough.

[@mhutchinson007]

Definitely one of the greatest brickfilms of all time! Instant classic!

[@csavoy1]

Dude nothin can beat this! no question.

[@JWhiu]

you've really got a talent there! one i]of the best brickfilms of all time! -purplepirate101

[@vivorproductions]

This playlist should have "The Wild Crunch" in it. That was one of the best brickfilms I've ever seen.

[@sebastianbrickfilms8579]

vivorproductions true

[@MisterMulluc]

Not a dull moment

[@TitanPicturesStudio]

Brilliant

[@ohadqumpo]

omg! u rock!!!!! dude i have to tell forrest fire to put this up on his page! u must have more views!

[@PdoubleyouC]

Yep, yet another addition to my classics playlist Superb

[@MattGillan]

Great stuff, Nos. Amazing animation and nice cinemotography. I also really enjoyed the story.

[@yermaan]

The floating is called masking.

[@diegobareno5820]

What floating?

[@vnanimation]

Wow! that was AMAZING! is that filmed at 20 fps?

[@ryandue2468]

absolutly perfect. how do you do such smooth movments.

[@doctor09210]

3:09 is that suposed to be fight club? but wow I loved it so much

[@tomgudde]

This so great that i must say my vids suck as i look at yours!

[@Shrankenhiemer]

This is a great brickfilm. The fight scenes are especially great, as is the plot.

[@Robukka]

this is the coolest "this video has been added to your favorites"

[@wantsomecake328]

my fav brickfilm

[@T0MZ0]

Grace is a legend. I Just LOVE this brickfilm!

[@knives4cash]

I demand this be made into a full-featured film! (preferable in lego but live would be fine)

[@analogbug16]

I absolutely this Brickfilm.

[@KingDroid101]

It's perfect except like 2 camera bumps.

[@EyesOnMeStudios]

you woulsn't be able to tell its that high you would only be ale to tell upto 24fps as thats what the human eye can detect but no more!

[@RealBrickAnimations]

this video should have mouch more views i mean it is very good

[@xMercuryx56]

Animations like this should come along. I mean nowadays people post crap animation...

[@danieloftamriel]

Absolute classic!

[@XLR8155]

I like the gun used by darcy where did you get it pls tell

[@MPfist0]

oh well, I didn't noticed that ea used 24 in the box...that was one of his best works, IMO...but, if something is smooth it doesn't necessarely needs to have a high framerate...bodville(or pe668 in utub) uses 30 fps, and it's very mooth, but zach and Nosniborus looks more lifelike...

[@mothuncle]

what is up with these kick ass frames man keep it up

[@_Toast_Ghost_]

nice i felt like this is a movie

[@LegoLoverFilms]

I know I've posted a comment before, but i felt the neeed to know: What was the song at the end when Cecil and Travis were fighting?

[@JonniPeppers]

Classic.

[@UpeguiAlex]

Dude this is sweet!! Very cool!

[@LegoLoverFilms]

I said "What was the SONG at the end"

[@11338325]

I don't like Cecil. He lets his best friend almost die. And when their mentor, Fabron, is dying, all he cares about is getting the Phoenix Badge, and even when he gets the badge, he wants to beat up Travis. Also, what is Fabron's relationship to Travis and Cecil besides being their mentor?

[@RatboyLimited]

this is really good stuff

[@MaxwellVideos]

GREAT FIGHT SCENE YOURE EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@BobbyisYoda]

one of the best

AMAZING!!

[@samthelegoman1]

what does the body do?

[@Raidmasterprod]

I have only one question for this awesome movie (It's too good to be called a 'video') which I demand an answer for: How many frames per second did you use while making this?

[@KinzCoveP]

AMAZING

[@PaceStudios2012]

Where did you get your sound?

[@csavoy1]

great video

[@SpaceBreakdown]

OMG AMAZING!!!

[@goldencamerastudios]

@xMercuryx56 More than Lol. He's right. I don't get what everyone sees in Forrest.

[@Tellmeimaninja]

but how do you do it?

[@zm8y]

awsome!

[@MPfist0]

trust me, also the smootest brickfilmer, zach macias, uses 15...I know it

[@golfcrazenes18]

Nice

[@sfugity]

Amazing.

[@Majkovsky]

what name a this program??

[@jstudios98]

i asked eanimation and he said that he does 24

[@cccplt]

i did not get what the hell was going on

[@jerkward4]

very ncie!

[@MPfist0]
