Lego Star Wars Stop Motion: Clones VS Droids

Things are going as normal at this Republic base, when the clones learn of an impending droid attack. With not enough troops to hold the base, they take up battle positions to try and buy as much time as they can for reinforcements to arrive.
This stop motion was made entirely by me. In total it runs about 6,800 frames at 20fps, shot on dragonframe. It's taken me several years to finish this film, because even though I completed the physical filming very quickly (moving all of the legos), I was drawing every single spark, laser, and explosion by hand in paint.net (not a good idea, will not be doing so in the future). Obviously such a task was very overwhelming, so I kept putting it off until it had been a couple years. But, now I had significantly more experience with paint.net than when I started, so I managed to finish almost all of the effects within a couple months.
As soon as the final laser was done, I moved it into Sony Vegas to add sound effects, voices, music, an opening title card, and credits.
I'm very proud of this film. It may not be perfect, but it is living proof to me of what I can do if I just keep working hard instead of putting things off. I do hope to make a sequel sometime in the future, so keep an eye out if you enjoyed this one.
EDITING SOFTWARE USED
Dragonframe 4 (to take the pictures)
Paint.net (to draw the visual fx)
Sony Vegas Pro 14 (sound, title card, credits)

The comedy, the choice of Lego pieces, the quality is excellent. You were able to remaster one of my favorite eras of stop motion Lego Star Wars with this single video. Well done.

[@tobblebricks]

Thank you! It was the best era, that much is certain

[@zachduperron8543]

This feels like pizza movies from back in the day but with old and new clones coexisting. I love it a lot!

this brings back some good and old memories of lego stop motion

[@tobblebricks]

I had only the old films in mind whilst making this one, I'm glad it shows

[@justfinnchilling]

Bro you make me feel like 8, the quality feels like this was made 11 years ago, the good old days. You better get more subs my guy this is too good

[@tobblebricks]

Haha thanks, I'll do my best!

[@alexdeebopbop]

Great video. The picture quality brings me back to the childhood of the old stop motions. But so many things to did great. Keep up the awesome work. I kinda hope you keep that more nostalgic/comedic vibe to them

[@tobblebricks]

The camera and lack of backdrop definitely instill a very nostalgic vibe, but for the sake of my eyes whilst editing I'll most likely upgrade those two things lol. The rest will stay as it is. Thank you!

[@bstcjstudios2641]

I agree!!!

[@KrazyPugz]

Ikr it is so nostalgic at the start I thought I was watching one but there are newer clones so no but still super good

[@tobblebricks]

Thanks man! Can't speak for the recognition, but I definitely plan to make more! (and also to get a better camera lol)

[@rubbrtoe840]

Bro the nostalgia I’m gettin rn

[@tobblebricks]

Good ole' 501st Legion videos lol

[@billybill1270]

The old PizzaMovies 501st Legion videos are the main inspiration that everyone's picked up on, but I can't help but sense a pinch of Base 327 as well what with the multi-coloured walls and incompetent clones. Really well done!

[@strikeflyer]

I haven't laughed that hard in a stop motion in years, definitely brings me back to the old days of Lego star wars stop motions.

[@CLON3RAW3S0ME]

I felt like i just stepped into a time machine This is absolute pure nostalgia and it was made 10 days ago this was such a great funny and awesome stopmotion to watch definitely reminds me of the old pizza movie squad 42 and fire forest films You’ve done an incredible job and I hope like how others have did that this gets a lot more recognition and views and I wish more people would make stopmotions like this again Please keep this up !!! And aswell as a big thank you for making this cinematic masterpiece :)

Thank you so much, I loved the old movies and it means a lot that everyone is reminded of them by watching mine. I plan to only make better films from here, so stay tuned!

This is hella nostalgia to the kind of animations that were out when i was a kid like base 375 or whatever it was called

[@tobblebricks]

Base 327 (by taylor-place productions originally, now by BrickUltra) and 501st Legion (by pizzamovies) were my favorite stop motions to watch and still are, so I definitely take a lot of inspiration from them
