I love behind-the-scenes features for animated movies.
Yesterday, I took my three boys and two friends to a packed moviehouse to watch The Lego Movie. It’s pretty good, poking fun at itself and the corporate environment, with plenty of inside jokes for adults and crazy mayhem for kids. If your children or students saw the movie and are now thinking, I wanna do that (ie, make a Lego stopmotion movie) check out this stopmotion moviemaking hactivity kit resource that I created for the Mozilla Webmaker through a partnership with the National Writing Project.
Peace (in the bricks),
Kevin
Thanks, Kevin. I saw the movie yesterday, and I am finally gong to start the LEGO club I have been thinking about (at my junior high school). It would be great to get to the movie-making point eventually, but my son is ready for it now 🙂
Good luck!
