Make: Online is taking the month of March to talk about DIY moviemaking, and one of the first topics they’re covering is LEGO animation. And they’ve included my film “Little Guys!” as one of the most awesome LEGO films made, to be used for inspiration. I’m flattered!

Here’s the next two installments of episode 2 of the LEGO Club Show. I had nothing to do with either of these, but they’re still pretty cool. The interview with Patrick Boivin is of particular interest to stop-motion animators and aficionados, and it’s great to hear his insight and advice.
Here’s an entry to the ThinkGeek Brick Shirt contest by myself and Nelson Diaz.
Here’s a really fun look inside the world of adult LEGO hobbyists. Their work is just fantastic, and this documentary by Jess Gibson brings it all together really well.

Many of you have linked me to a feature on the Huffington Post blog today, which touts itself as presenting “The 17 Most Awesome LEGO Creations Of All Time.”
Now, there are a lot of cool creations in this list, many of which I think are awesome. But this post still bugs me for a number of reasons:
But I digress. Obviously, as an AFOL myself (and a little bit of a fanboy snob), I’m bound to disagree with this post and these choices. And I do, but that’s the thing — you can’t really posit something like this; it’s almost completely subjective.
With all this in mind, I decided to compile MY “Top 17 Most Amazingest LEGO creations EVAR in the Whole Universe and the Future.” In no particular order. Enjoy.
I just uploaded some images of the Maniac Monster and Blacktron Cadillac from the “Zack the LEGO Maniac” video to my MOCpages account and Flickr. Check ‘em out!

The LEGO Club Show continues, with part 1 of episode 2. Max squares off against the Power Miners’ Crystal King, who was REALLY fun to animate.
For the past few months, myself and some other folks here at Paganomation have been hard at work on segments for the LEGO Club Show, a new series from the folks at LEGO Club TV. Episode 1 has finally been put up on YouTube, after being released on the LEGO Club website back in January.
The intro to the show looks great — and is all stop-motion, as I mentioned before. While I didn’t work on the intro, I am responsible for Adventures of Max, Flappy the Mailbox, and the Zack the LEGO Maniac video. I’m really proud of the end results. Great work everybody! Enjoy!

Whereas I was once perplexed by it’s development, now I’m a new contributor to the LEGO CL!CK blog. My first post went up today, where I talk about being inspired by past visions of the future. Check it out!
