I Spent 8 Years Making a Stop Motion Film - PAIRD BTS

A behind the scenes featurette as bloated and episodic as the film itself
WATCH the full film: • PAIRD - Feature Length...

Truly inspiring, very few people actually have the will to work on a project for so long.

[@PurpleBrickfilms]

At the end, after you pressed the off button, I just stay there. Not saying a word, just, dumbfounded. I got emotional during the end, and I know that sounds silly because it’s over a LEGO film behind the scenes video, but it just made me think. You spent 7-8 years on an animation you were creating for almost your entire childhood. You’re the creator of something that I loved, something that can be considered as one of the best Brickfilms of all time, and that ending, that last button click, made be stop. I wonder what it would be like; making an entire film throughout your life. I wonder how much time you would spent filming, working your ass off as you get slightly closer every photo you take. So much time, so much effort. Thank you, thank you so much.

[@hoodiejack]

It’s cool how paird gets better over the movie shows your skill growing

[@hoodiejack]

You really deserve more recognition

[@c.a.dproductions]

Wow, i’m glad you filmed your journey and documented it. You were truly a head of your time on this project. This was brilliant.

[@simple_films]

Hi cad

[@sblegostudios8585]

I remember when my brother first showed me the first two episodes of this, and every few months after that I’d check to see if a new episode had come out. Watching the whole series has been a defining part of my love for LEGO over the years.

[@inactive3628]

Man really spent 8 years... 8 YEARS. This man created one of the greatest stopmotion films I’ve ever seen. Congrats on being so successful. Amazing work of art.

[@Nicou_YT]

His stop motion : 8 years My stop motion: 8 minutes

[@tangent.arc38618]

progress is what matters

[@MisterRubbernose]

I searched full length Lego stop-motion movies for inspiration for my full length movie. And... wow. That's all I can say. This was one of the best Lego stop-motions that I've seen. This inspired me, big time. Don't stop making stop-motions! I hope this is one of many epic movies.

[@bustersbrain]

I'm glad I got to see this before I start watching the film.

[@BrickSystemBros]

I love this. It is an inspiration to the people that see themselves in you, where you were, how you started from scratch, how you put in the work day after day. It is the reality of growing up, but not losing that passion. The uncertainty of pursuing college and keeping the dream alive. PAIRD deserves every view, share, and mention it can get. I hope it has been worth it and I thank you for sticking with it to the end. PAIRD is more than a brickfilm, it is a legacy. If you could have done ONE thing different from the start, what would you change?

[@JosephDeRose]

Oof, would definitely say nail that script down before shooting lol. But disliking the script you wrote when you were 12 is inevitable I suppose.

[@ee7450]

This inspired me to make a final brickfilm, its been a long time since ive done this and this will probably be my last. But im going out with a bang

[@tangent.arc38618]

yessir. don't give up

[@MMM..HUMBURGER]

Dude... I usually get lazy and don't make a full length film so I searched up how to get patience to make a stopmotion like this and oh my God. I will always use this video as inspiration for my films.

[@tangent.arc38618]

W put in the hard work and be rewarded with your effort

[@VAviation24]

Lego needs to hire this man, he worked on this for 8 YEARS

[@schebbi973]

[@kbnprodigy2449]

This is insane. I just wanted to say that Tyler the creators stop motion made me want to watch more and this is the first one I clicked on. I’m about to watch the actual video now. Congrats guys

[@thebasketofgoods9753]

Marin, I remember seeing you when you and your family made the Varia Suit, and I was amazed at that. (Still am, it's quite good). but to do this for so long, it's actually very inspiring to see someone I looked into for awesome things to have this much dedication to do other really neat things and to follow them through despite hiatuses or delays, etc. I admit, I'm genuinely happy to see that you made it to where you're at now, simply amazing! Thanks for sticking with what you loved doing, I'm curious as to what your next step is =D Regards That guy who asked about making a gravity suit 7 years or so ago ^_^

[@treedeku6201]

When I was little I wanted to make the same for my own. This guy was basically my inspiration. He will always be in my memories of my childhood.

[@uni-thecorn6496]

“I feel like I will finish it halfway through the next school year.” 7 years later

What a great effort. Amazing resilience. And I enjoyed the behind the scenes take on it - you had a vision and made it a reality. That's a good lesson for life - keep putting that vision out there.

[@Black0raz0r]

WHY are there 4 dislikes?!?!?! THAT is great!! GREAT JOB man!! :D

[@scottishdude9682]

Just a wild guess but maybe because it took 8 years. Not a great production time frame.

[@elektron2kim666]

I'm proud of LEGO and it's builders. I'm from Denmark and it's one of our big treasures no matter the age. It's an amazing LEGO movie you have made.

[@AaronHolly]

My son found and loves PAIRD. Thankfully the algorithm recommended something interesting; this making of video. I have worked over two decades in the film and visual effects industry and watching this was inspiring even to me. Especially to me. I think the world looks forward to what you produce next.

[@north1036]

It was an amazing odyssey the making of this movie.

[@IsaacStevens1]

I've been working on a brickfilm of a similar scale for the past 2 years now and every time I feel like giving up on it, I watch this video and it inspires me yet again the same way it did when I watched it for the first time. I have probably watched this video a little over a hundred times now along with the movie. Paird is by far the best brickfilm of all time. Thank you for blessing humanity with this wonderful work of art.

Man, what talent. Joseph really did love working on the project, if not, it never would have been finished, it would've been abandoned. If you guys liked PAIRD, you should watch the non brickfilm stuff on this channel, he's certainly going somewhere good. The passion, ingenuity, and progression of time seen throughout the entire video had my attention the whole time. A very inspiring story.

[@adukovski]

Amazing, great job for both of you.

[@Doctamouse]

Just to see your growth physically as a person is so cool. You get older, you look older, and the stop motions get better. Keep on going!

[@filmstudios5045]

This is awesome. It reminds me when I first started brick filming, it was just trial and error and learning as I go from when I started I was like 12 and now I’m 24 and I took a few breaks in life but I still pursue it to this day even though I have wanted to quit in the past and no matter what I always came back. So congrats on you for not giving up and sticking to it. I wish you the best in your career. Never listen to the naysayers and always do what makes you happy and you’ll never want to stop. If you ever want to collab or do a voice or need a voice let me know. Cheers

Bro you have earned my subscription before I even finished this BTS or watched the full film. I am 14 months into my big stopmotion project thats only gonna be 30 mins long may I add...and know how draining it is, how much literal sweat goes into the work. The dude gave up 8 years of his life to make it...sure, I can spend 2 seconds subscribing and an hour and a half watching it to help...
