Director's Comments

I made this video as part of the Cannes Lions contest hosted on mofilm.com.  I found out about the contest really late, so I had limited time to make an entry. As such, the whole thing was a bit rushed unfortunately.

Staff Review

Riley:
As anyone knows, LEGO is an incredible medium, and the endless and veritable opportunity it provides is the centerpiece to Fancypants film. The whole concept seems reminiscent of a real Lego advertising campaign, right down to the slightly clichéd 'Where are you going to go?' tagline. Definitely a fun watch with sweet animation, awesome camera work and a cool concept.
