thanks in advance :gawe:

Just a though, if it's stop motion, you could do something like a forgotten toy moving itself around. Maybe trying to remember the heppy times when its owner used to play with him before he grew up.

How long does it have to be?

I used to do stopmotion, lego is very good for it.

That's a brilliant idea!

start out with a non-moving shot of something you would expect to be the main character of a stop motion piece, a doll or lego thing. Focus on it for about five seconds. Then have everything other than it start moving around, while it stays completely stationary. Have this going on until right before the end. Everything stops moving, and the doll suddenly 'wakes up', looks around in confusion, shrugs and falls back to sleep

Agree with stag, legoes are a good stop motion tool.
If you get good enough with lego stop motion, you could do something like this:

Just so you know. The plural of Lego is simply Lego.
Hardcore Lego fans will give you hell about it. Just giving you a heads up.

I do some stopmotion. My best results have come from stuff that shouldn't be moving moving. IE your desk chair pulling itself in and your computer mouse moving on it's own or a rubix cube solving itself. I might upload some of mine sometime if I have time.

I found a great song to go with it as well, Staind's "Believe", it would really fit well with that sort of premise. =)

The Minimum is 30 seconds @ 15 FPS

we were told not to use lego since it can be a little dull (like a house being built, etc.. nothing exciting)

I love it when people make stop motion animation skits with little diecast cars.

maybe... you could do one with monster trucks :D

I did think about that since I have 180 diecast Monster trucks at my disposal :P but I think I got an idea now

Stop-Motion is always hilarious. VERY time consuming, but hilarious.
