It was a short film based on\u00a0<em>The Straw, the Coal and the Bean<\/em> by the Brothers Grimm. It was a cute little tale and I enjoyed getting together all the legos to represent each respective character. All in all this was a very fun film to make.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;ClippeR&#8221; -2011<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EmIF9CLKJa4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For years this was my favorite film I ever made. I loved the tone, the atmosphere and the animation. Now-a-days, It might still be one of my favorites, but I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s aged well. I intended to made this for this animated film contest Nickelodeon would run every year. I tried as hard as I could to make it the best I could for the contest, but when it came time to enter, I found out Nickelodeon wasn&#8217;t running the contest anymore.\u00a0I was furious. But in hindsight, it probably would&#8217;t win.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;DRAW!!!&#8221; -2010<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CldBeakCHgA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This was one of the first films I made that I really spent a lot of time editing in. I spent two weeks total editing it. I was really proud of it. Now a days, I look back and it&#8217;s just a bunch of fart jokes and angry birds references. It&#8217;s not terrible,\u00a0it&#8217;s just lukewarm. Also it marks the 4th collaboration with Luke Covert.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Lego Zombie killer EP. 2 The Woods&#8221; -2010<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2UYddhyu2TU\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The second exciting episode of Lego Zombie Killer! I saw the pilot episode of the walking dead 20 minutes before making this, so it had a lot of influence. For instance, I called them walkers rather than runners, and a souther boy hits a man in the head with a shovel. Pretty rushed and incoherent, but a fun trip down nostalgia lane.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Lego Zombie Killer EP.1 The City&#8221; -2010<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qmG40AG69Vw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">So rather than making lego zombie apocalypse part 3, I decided to try my hand at another episodic series. This one marks the adventures of a badass zombie killing dude in the midst of an apocalypse. It was made in under a week and was really rushed. I intended to make these one a week, but yeah that didn&#8217;t happen.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Short Action Movie&#8221; &#8211; 2010<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xvYaIol9htg\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Wow, what an inspired title. Filmed my my best friend Mary Scibilia and her cousin, who&#8217;s name evades me now.

A completely bad film. Filmed and edited over the span of 3 hours, it marks the third collaboration with Luke Covert. I guess it&#8217;s worth mentioning that it&#8217;s the first ever &#8220;horror film&#8221; I ever made.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Lego Zombie Apocalypse part 2&#8221; -2010<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lmYuIoOCFlQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This is one of my fondest film memories. I can remember how much I toiled to get everything right. The lighting, the characters, the music, the puns. For the sound effects I recorded them off my dad&#8217;s gun app on his iPhone. It&#8217;s still a piece a&#8217; crap, but damn if it doesn&#8217;t get me nostalgic. I like to think of the turning point. As if everything stemmed from this piece alone.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;lego zombie apocalypse pt 1&#8221; -2010<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-N7VMa6Y2Ps\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">My first ever zombie film!
