| 5/2/08 | Grace | 
Travis and Cecil learn the difference between Fame and Glory in this action-drama. Filmed 6/7/06 through 7/17/06 as an entry for the Fame, Infamy and Glory contest (put on by Brickfilms.com), Grace is my second big "Brickfilm." It received first place out of 13 films. It was my most difficult film to animate (thus far), and is one of my first attempts at using dialogue. I experimented further with camera movement, dramatic lighting, music composition, story telling, and title-card placement, so I'm pretty happy. It was finished in a slightly rushed manner, due to the deadline, but I can't complain, as the deadline is also what motivated me to finish. Such is life. A big thanks goes to my voice actors—you made this movie come alive. Enjoy! | Robinson Wood | 2006 | |
