Basically it's just making a set out of Legos, setting up a camera on a tri-pod (on macro), and taking pictures as you move the legos little by little. After you take all the pictures you download them onto a computer then send all the pictures and video to a movie maker program. Once you have it there you can drag and drop them onto the timeline. Make sure that you speed up the pictures with the effects. Then just syncronize music and sound effects with the video. The last step is to save it to your computer.
It's fun to do that because...well, it's just fun! I like to see hours of work all sped up and looking like a movie. I mean, who doesn't like that ? I also like it because I can post all my videos on the official Lego web site. If you've got Legos, a high megapixel camera (I use 10.1), and a movie making program, try it!
Here is the offical Lego web site. It's the branch that allows movies and videos to be posted.

It might take you a little while to understand what it is all about. If you want to see my FIRST Lego video, and other posts that I have made, search in the "Search for creations" box for the username Profclyde. I hope you like it!
If the video doesn't load from the web site, here it is.
There is one REALLY bad scene. It's really wobbly but other than that I think it's fine.

I look forward to seeing more of your movies!
Hi Bailey. It's Kevin and Nathan. Great blog, love the Lego movie. Maybe when you come back you can show us how you do it. Hope to see you soon. We're working on getting an email address and then we'll email you.
I have another post ready to go. I'm just waiting for approval from my friend over the internet because it contains content that he created. I hope it'll be up soon.
