Began writing the script, reached aproximately half of the movie.

It's an attempt to add the Stalker frachise to the brickfilm world, by doing stories that are set in the world described, and are based-off the book and the movie. I personally plan on making a trilogy of movies: Stalker: Mirror of Consience; Stalker: Alienation Zone; and a yet untitled movie.
Also these won't be short at all: the first movie seems to taking a lenght of min. 10 minutes, maybe even 20. Simply can't make a short story
The idea is similar to what people do when brickfilm an untold star wars story that could be canonical. Tell me if you don't understand something...

I also want to update that I've finished writing the script, and found a voice actor for the stalker: Sebastian Scopa, my best frienda who already voice acted in car-stories

It's "conscience", not "consience" -- would hate to see a good film spoilt by a dodgy title...

Created the movie poster, will post it as soon as i understand how to upload images (Yes I know)
Also learning about progressive rock; as in Tarkovskij's movie we sometime have scenes with progressive rock-like backround music.
For who doesn't knows what is progressive rock, it's a sub-genre of rock/classical rock with electronic instruments that is a lttle more "valuable" we can say than heavy rock. The Pink Floyd played progressive rock E.G.

Another scene is filmed, having now the movie average 3 minutes long, with 3 scenes of 12 done, and started working on filming of scene 4.
Some scenes are longer than the others. That depends on the action, the dialogues in the scene. Obviously, don't want to spoil the plot, and give out more details than the ones written above.

I had another break due to school, now this is going on very slowly, and had no real ongoing with the production. Looking forward to film some more complicated scenes, with bigger sets and longer sequences.

Thanks! Unfortunately it will take me pretty much time to be able to release this

I do keep checking out your thread as you post, but if you want people to get to interested post some pictures behind the scenes photos and fames from the animation can help generate a bit of excitement.  Production threads without any pictures are kind of disappointing for me.

Another issue is the info you do post is just saying if you have worked on the project or if something got in the way, you aren't talking about any challenges you've run into or any actual info about the project,  you don't have to spell the whole story out bt each update should have something besides weather or not you worked on it.

As SlothPaladin suggested, I'm posting a few production photos about the movie.
I start from a feature that actually is slightly a post-production related thing, that is the filtering of some scenes.
Just as in Tarkovskij's masterpiece here too scenes outside the zone are filtered in a slight, between Tan and black and white colour. I show you this here:

The original, unfiltered version of the shot. You also could see that I tried to keep the highest quality of the picture possible.

The filtered version of the same scene, not the same shot, sorry, filtering is something I do with the complete video after having put the frames together. You see both it's resemblance with the atmosphere we have in Tarkovskyij's movie beginning scenes, and that it gives actually a more night-like atmosphere (the scene is set at Dawn). Unfortunately the quality of the picture is not as accurate as the unfiltered one, that's inevitable when using filters.
I'll be using filters later too, to give some special effects of darker night, but won't show any other filtered, finished "product".

This scene is also the first one I've shot, so let me show you some more photos related to it.
Unfortunately I used movie shots for that,  it came to mind later to take photos with my mobile from different perspectives.

This, the only production photo of the scene, shows the amount of detail that single wall has, in an attempt to give a post-apoc. look to all the locations of the movie.
Also I'd like to remind that I updated the main topic with the logo.
