| Aspiring film-maker Danny Yeatman wrote and produced a stop-action Lego movie for a film festival at the Gunston Arts Center. The Arlington Sun-Gazette writes: "Among the most ambitious projects was Danny Yeatman's animated 'The Children,' set in a mythological world with warring brothers, full-fledged battle scenes and a surprise ending. Yeatman's film consists of 1,215 frames, each of which had to carefully lead from the previous to the next." You can watch the nine-minute masterwork here on YouTube. It's very impressive. |
