“Little Guys!” doesn’t have any jokes
Sunday, March 14th, 2010“Little Guys!” featured on Make: Online
Monday, March 8th, 2010Make: 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!

LEGO Club TV Interview on YouTube
Friday, April 17th, 2009I know I mentioned this before, but I was interview last year by the guys from LEGO Club TV when I was teaching a class on LEGO animation at the Brickworld event in Illinois. The interview is up on YouTube now, check it out if you have a moment.

I’m being impersonated on YouTube
Saturday, October 18th, 2008Well, not exactly — some kid is uploading my videos without my permission. I’ve already flagged them as violating copyright and sent the user a message. But if you’ve got a YouTube account, I’d appreciate it if you’d log in and flag the videos “little guyz!” and “go miniman go!” as violating copyright. Here is the link:

“Little Guys!” is Animation Film of the Day on WILDsound Film Festival Website

Brickworld 2008: The Reckoning
Saturday, June 21st, 2008Another year, another Brickworld — the mega-LEGO fan event festival convention extravaganza that happens out in Wheeling, IL every June. This year’s has been particularly awesome so far — I taught a class on LEGO animation and also started up the animation demos I did last year, too. Probably gonna try to run some kind of nighttime LEGO animation screening tonight as well.
Sadly, all this running around means that I haven’t been as on top of the pictures as I was last year, but here are a few to whet your palate. Or your appetite. I forget how sayings work.
(There are also some photos posted over on The Brothers Brick.)
Hopefully I’ll have some more to say and to show by the end of the event, which is tomorrow night. If you’re in the Chicago area, I highly recommend stopping by — Public day tomorrow is from 10am-3pm.
Little Guys! wins two BAFA awards
Monday, March 24th, 2008I received an interesting e-mail this past Sunday night (after having internet problems all weekend). Apparently, Little Guys! has won “Best Film” and “Best Animation” in the 2008 BAFA awards!
And I didn’t even know I was nominated.
The BAFA (Brick Award for Film Arts) is a new awards ceremony cooked up by some of the members of the brickfilm community. The former brickfilm awards (the BAMPAs) have apparently fallen by the wayside, and it seems the BAFAs are taking their place. To win twice in a first-of-it’s-kind awards judging is both flattering and humbling.
All in all, Little Guys! picked up five nominations — Best Sound Design, Best Set Design, Best Ensemble Cast, Best Animation, and Best Film. Again, a huge honor. You can read more about the awards here.
A big thanks to the organizers and to everyone who voted for the movie!
