Dracula
Firstly, this is just a trailer and I'M NOT MAKING the whole film, that would take forever. This film was made as the practical part of my Unit 3+4 VCE Media course, which is part of my upper-high-school studies. I wanted to do an animation since they're my speciality (of course) and I knew I wanted to do something dark and gothic. I decided to make a film adaption of a piece of gothic fiction literature, and since Frankenstein had already been done in LEGO I decided to do Dracula, which is another very famous gothic horror novel. I knew from the beginning that it would be nigh on impossible to condense the plot of Dracula into a few minutes, so I decided to make a trailer instead. It was filmed in about a month, but the buying of bricks and pre-planning happened for months before that. Since I finished in a rush I'm not too happy about the music in some parts, but it'll do. The film was shot with a Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 and Stop Motion Pro, and edited with Adobe Premiere and After Effects CS3.
