As someone who works with a Lego Certified Professional, I can say it is a dream job for me! Not just because we build with Lego every day, but also the design challenges and getting to work with other Lego lovers too!
@@TiagoCatarino I'm proud to say I work for Ryan McNaught at Brickman in Australia. We have an awesome workshop. It's basically floor to ceiling containers of every element we know of and a big work space to build in. Honestly, it's great fun!
@@Klementaun actually just the same as a regular job, we have job openings and do interviews. There are a few lego challenges we ask of potential applicants but each LCP team has their own secret requests so I can't reveal these here ;-) We're always looking for creative applicants!
7:29 All New Bricks is my favorite speed build channel of all time, the work and cinematography Paul puts into not only the stop-motion but the actual build process itself is on a whole other level. Really happy to see the shout-out. And you're right about there being an audience for just about anything. I don't plan on making RUclips videos regularly but I have an old big LEGO set and I want to try recording an unboxing and build video of it, for the simple reason that no unboxing video for it exists. But I also want to make it somewhat professional-looking and well-edited, not just prop up my camera at the side and record it with little to no setup or editing.
This is one of the most informative videos about Lego I've ever watched here or anywhere else, and all packed in less than 9 minutes. It could very well be a TV program. Congrats!
Thank you Tiago! As an avid LEGO fan and recent collector, I am looking for a medium to share creativity on and this honestly helps! Working on becoming a content creator, but we shall see...
To me, Flipping and investing feel counter to a passion for LEGO. It drives up prices of new and used bricks and sets, making it harder to enjoy if you don't have a huge disposable income. It also reduces the possibility of stumbling across cool stuff for cheap like in charity stores, which is part of the joy of browsing those and finding it as a passion you never knew you had.
Hey Tiago I just wanted to stop by and give you a big thank you. I've been going through some mental health struggles lately, its been tough but your videos have helped me get through these difficulties. I used to love Legos as a kid and I've been dipping my feet back into the space recently, and you specifically have been at the forefront of that. Its been a big help, you've made a difference in my life and I wanted to share that w/ you. Thank you for what you do Tiago, you make the world a better place. Best of luck to you! :)
I recently got a job at Lego in Billund, super excited to my start date, close to the end of the year. Thanks for all the good content you put up Tiago, your pro and con video you did some time ago really help me our during the interviewing process!
I do 4 & 5 myself. It is something of a wait on the Investing side to have a set finally sell. As to the reselling bricks, that is extremely time consuming once you've gotten the lot in question to sort through it. Filtering out the non-LEGO and off brand bricks from the pile. Washing, finding broken pieces, sorting and listing them up. When selling on Bricklink, consider a minimum buy ammount to make it worth while when pulling orders.
Thanks for his video. Ever since I was a little kid, I always had a passion for Legos. I got my first Lego set when I was about 5 to 6 years old, the Epic Dragon Battle from Ninjago. When I was putting the set together for the first time, it felt like heaven. Hearing the snapping together of pieces in such a way blew my mind away. And now, as a young adult, I still build and collect Lego sets and get this: Even build my own creations with Lego pieces I have in my bins at home! The more Lego sets I bought, the more stuff I learned from them. And now, my biggest wish of all is to be working for the Lego group, designing Big Scale cars and Objects and people from movies.
Trying the LEGO Content Creator thing as a side hustle for 8 months. Still far away from getting monetized on RUclips, but already learned a lot and found other ways to try to earn some money, like making my own designs and selling the instructions.
Fantastic video Tiago! I rediscovered my love for LEGO earlier this year and am currently trying my hand at investing as well as content creation which I am thoroughly enjoying.
I make digital Legos as a hobby and usually post some on social media. I have been offered to become an official content creator but I don't feel like I'm ready yet. Besides that, designing Legos has always been my dream
I have been working at Legoland as a seasonal employee for 3 years now. I've been trying to get into the Master Builder role for a while, but it is a very difficult thing to do. You have to go through 3 rounds of a building competition. Even still, they usually only hire one person at a time. I just recently did mine and I wasn't picked. There was a lot of good competition and the pressure got to me XD. But, it is certainly my dream job and I will continue to apply whenever they decide to hire more Master Builders.
I was a Master Builder at LEGOLAND California, and then I become a Freelance LEGO Artist, I could have become a LEGO Certified Professional over a decade ago, but I turned them down as I prefer to be independent. I still work for LEGO off and on to this day occasionally.
The LEGO designers have been on fire lately; Tiago try some of the new Speed Champion sets. I got the new Toyota Supra and it was one of the most unique and fun builds I've had in a long time. It was so intricate and used so many new building techniques, I believe its something right up you ally!
Your movie shows some truly interesting thoughts. And as you were working for LEGO, some of the them are coming from an insider, who knows what he is talking about. Thanks for sharing this with the community.
Oh my god Tiago! I just noticed that Lego store pic @1:38 is my first and local Lego store in Canberra Australia! Haha can’t believe it’s in your video
Great advice!! Been thinking about doing some RUclips LEGO content for a while now and this may be the push I need!! Thanks from my little slice of the world. 🇳🇿
I honestly don’t know if I could do any of these including the first 2 but if I could work at a Lego store or theme park that would be a perfect job I would like to do and hope working there for either of those would be full time
i honestly kinda want to try making a few lego videos, i just need to figure out some kind of setup i would use when i move soon, i have skills in editing since ive made gaming videos before and i know what kinda style i would go for too. a mix of your quality and generic stud and sacredbricks' energy and editing
Tiago lego needs to have another calab with srtanger things to make the krill house for the normal world and the upside down and for minifigs add nancy,steve, robin, and vecna in the upside down and for the normal world add lucaus max and erica and retale it for 250$ it would be a very good seller
It’s my dream to become a master builder at LEGOLAND Windsor, recently I built my own giant LEGO minifigure like the ones at LEGOLAND! It took me 5 months but it was worth it (although now it is in pieces because I’m trying to figure out how to make the legs move!)
*My dream really is to work with LEGO products everyday and someday make a living out of it. I have been a huge LEGO fan from the very first day I had a brick in my hand!*
I'm thinking of applying for a Lego designer job, but I would like to know 2 things. 1. Is a diplome for the completed architecture uni enough? 2. Do I need to move to Denmark, or can I work from my country? I'm living in the European union. If you'd take your time and reply to my comment, I would be very greatful.
The 6th job is to post your building skills online and ask people that you can design anything they want and sell it to people like a lego designer but not from lego . I have tried this for about 2 years and I got tons of money back 😛
Nice video! I would love to have a lego store. Id resell online, and have a physical store because i think that would be extremely satisfying. Unfortunately i don't have alot of money to startup. I might pick through my Minifigures and see if i have any gems in there to trade up or sell for inventory. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the information. I think that of all the available options, being a LEGO Content Creator is perhaps the most accessible for me. There are no Official LEGO Parks, Stores, or other notable Venues in the state I live in. I've only visited a LEGO Store once in my life, and it was during the Pandemic (so still no Pick-a-Bricks cup for me). I could potentially start with some semblance of a Portfolio because I have participated in 3 LEGO Displays at a local toy store (of which I still have images). As of this moment, I am just trying to work on organizing my LEGO Elements. During the mentioned displays, disorganization really hindered my creativity and killed the time I had to work. My 2022 New Years resolution is to change that, and I pretty much have until the end of Summer to get it done (when the Annual Display and themes are announced).
What about working at the Lego store? Not only you get an employee discount, but you make commission on the sets you sell. It's not a lot, but if you can sell some beefy technique or star wars sets ($200 - $800 range) it adds up.
Digital lego building for videogames is also one possible road ;) , now you need to redo your full video :p ! Have a very good day Tiago it is always nice to see you again through your videos :)
hey man i have been thinking about making the move in the future to be a lego designer or just maybe work at a lego store but im still a teenager so could you give me some advice?
I will add that you do not need to be a builder or designer to work for lego. I know people within the customer service section who do actually get to work with and around lego, just more in a customer service sense. If you'd like to work around lego but arent particularly amazing at designing or building your own stuff, its a decent shout, because you get the massive discount and some behidn the scenes info
This is a great video. So awesome that you got 100,000 subs in 1 year. I've been posting videos for a few years now and just passed 100 subs lol. Any suggestions for getting more subscribers??
Besides the documentary TC mentions, there is also an insightful series about the running of a Lego park in the UK with a recent recruit's experiences filmed in it.
Hello, Tiago, can I ask you a question? Is it legal to sell prints\photos with Lego? I'm a photographer and Lego photography on of my favorite thing, but I'm not sure is it okay to sell my art...)
I am seriously thinking of taking up model designing and mechanical engineering just so i can work at lego. I really want to work at lego, not just because i get to play with lego but because i like challenging myself with difficult things to make and because i like robotic and technical things PS i know i said robotic but i feel like making a robot from lego is x10 easier than making a robot from steel😅
