    Behind the scenes video: • Princess Storm: Behind...
    -----
    A film 6 years in the making is finally complete. I've been working on "Princess Storm" since 2015... writing, animating, re-writing, re-animating... I had given up on ever finishing the film... until last year, I decided to give it my best shot. So here we are! My longest animation to date. I put a lot into this, and I'm really excited to share this with you.
    If you'd like to see a little log of progress I made, check out the production topic on Bricks in Motion:

    Mary Charles as Princess Storm
    Jay Silver as King
    Walker Wenzel as Duke Exeter
    Additional Sound Design: Autumn Disher

    This is so great! The non-linear storytelling works so well here. I was never confused. The story is well-scripted and unique. The animation and set design is absolutely stunning as well as atmospheric. I must confess, I got the feels a little bit which is rare for a brickfilm. Stupendous job, my friend. The hard work well paid off.

The green of the grass and the chirping of the birds. Really liked this. Some impressive sets as well. one of my favorites was a shot of the forest as she rode away. It has a really nice style to it the whole film. Truly a film worthy to be seen. Thank you for finishing this!

The love and anger between Storm and her father and how even though they argue a lot you see there reasons for why is incredibly well done. And the way we see storm try to do everything to save Duke while her father tries to keep her safe in fear that he'll lose her is magnificent! I'm glad you decided to finish this project! Amazing job!

    Nice music selection and editing. Cute story; rather melodramatic. Pacing was well done. Not sure if the point is applicable since you have been working on this for years, however, this is a brave change in style from your typical recent works. Yet, retains an homage to the atmosphere prevalent in your brickfilms from a few years ago.

    • @rioforce
      @rioforce  2 роки тому

      I shot most of the film this year and last, while also working on other films. The fluke that was Ninjago Jungle can be blamed on this taking up all my desk space lol. But I did intentionally shoot this film to match my older style of lighting (for the most part) and the scenes have been sitting in my mind for years since I wrote them so I couldn’t deviate that much without losing my initial vision.
