BrotherhoodWorkshop I find curves are best for when you just want to have an play around with the shot and see what you can get out of it, but then again my after effect strategy tends to be just wiggle all the knobs until it looks pretty!
Wow, the effort that goes into your videos is amazing! Keep up the great work Brotherhood, you're without a doubt one of the best lego animators around :)
I have a question. What is your method to getting the video into full widescreen? My method is cropping each frame individually and I'm looking for an alternative.
I usually export my images as a quicktime movie from Dragonframe, then I drag them into a sequence with the proper settings in Final Cut and export from there.
this guy, kevin ulrich RULES!!! AND IM A MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR FAN OF LORT AND THE HOBBIT BOOKS AND MOVIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ect.
Luke Warm Studios if you have it already, I suggest learning it, like I did, but really if you don't have it already, it is a bit pricey, but if your a student you could probably get a student discount.
Isn't color correction more matching all the shots to look the same (so it isn't distracting), while grading sets the tone/feel of the shot? It seemed kind of unclear in the video. Either way, good stuff.
Very interesting! Thanks so much for that video! One quick question, though, how do you get away with using copyrighted music or movie audio clips in your videos without getting a copyright strike?
I know it's awesome you have all that work to make the film more dramatic with color grading but - to me - I kinda like the fact that the legos look like bright color legos just the same. Maybe cause I think it makes a better connection to the toys and not so much the movies. Anyway just an different artist view I guess since I still love all your videos. Carry on! :)
Can I first say how great your animations are! They are great! And what program do you use to film it? do you use a different one to edit it and add the color effects that you showed in this video? And lastly this looks program looks pretty complex, is it a good program to use for amateurs?
Appreciate this video. Yesterday I finished shooting my next brickfilm and am now editing. I was wondering how to go about color correcting, especially since I haven't taken advantage of those tools before. Thanks for the tips.
Kevin do u have to pay for ur stop start animation set I have got one and I make stop start lotr and the hobbit Lego and clay but it isn't that good it is called hue check it out. :D
I just got the smoug set for christmas, when i put smoug together, i noticed he had certain positions he can be in, how do you make a smooth stop motion with him?
Have you tried using the large rock monsters from the old power miners for when you turn a troll to stone? I think it would look more LEGO. I really like your animations.
Sometimes motion tracking is helpful, but generally I haven't found it to be very reliable and tracking by hand has saved me a lot of frustration. Though when it works, motion tracking does save a lot of time.
Absolutely incredible skills at work here. Can I be your apprentice? XD
Good video! For detailed brightness levels adjustment, do you prefer levels? or curves?
I like curves better personally, but again, I'm just an amateur.
BrotherhoodWorkshop I find curves are best for when you just want to have an play around with the shot and see what you can get out of it, but then again my after effect strategy tends to be just wiggle all the knobs until it looks pretty!
Brotherhood Workshop, In 1:55 and 1:02, what is the name of the tool your using to create the mask?
I was wondering the same thing?
Ashwin'sBrickFilms I think it is the pen tool
Wow, the effort that goes into your videos is amazing! Keep up the great work Brotherhood, you're without a doubt one of the best lego animators around :)
Well done! :)
And you have to do this for each image•_•
Oh my God this is so advanced, even my photography editing skills are up to par
What about the export to do not loose in quality?

These tutorials are great!

I love those Behind the Scenes videos. Please make more of those and also some VLogs if you have the opportunity to do something special.
Great video.The vignettes seem to work really well to add more punch to your shots.
Fur-st. Actually this time. Under 301 views. Under 50 views.
Hi Kevin, Would you recommend Adobe after effects?
1:41, is that your finger? underneath smaug?
Hmm... I should try editing the color in my videos. Thanks for the tutorial!
Awesome tutorial! My animations now are gonna be better.Thanks for tutorial.
This is very interesting. Adobe After Effects sounds very useful. Is it complicated?
It's easy to figure out the basics, hard to figure out the complicated stuff.
BrotherhoodWorkshop Oh.... Would you recommend it?
Luke Warm Studios if you have it already, I suggest learning it, like I did, but really if you don't have it already, it is a bit pricey, but if your a student you could probably get a student discount.
BrotherhoodWorkshop I agree, I tried doing mouth movements in Mocha, like in thevfxbro but SUPER complicated!
bigrickmachine Oh. Okay. Maybe I won't.
Is there a cheaper program you can you for something like this.... Or any editing
I'd like to see you do a collaboration with Michael Hickox Films.
Would ever make a 20 minute lego video of all of your favorite lego themes clash
BrotherhoodWorkshop what video editor do you use? I would love to know so I can use it myself!
Adobe after effects
Dragon frame
And some other one
You r awesome man
This really shows how much time and effort you put into your films
This is a fantastic tutorial video! thank you :) Oh and please could you consider doing a combat tutorial? I would love to see how you approach it :)
Thanks for this great tips! Happy New Year to you!
Can't you make some more The Battle of the Five Armies videos? plz.. I loved Azogs battle plan and The plot hole video!
Very good work. I have to download the "video copilot", it looks great.
Is the star wars project already finished i meant the stop motion?
Isn't color correction more matching all the shots to look the same (so it isn't distracting), while grading sets the tone/feel of the shot? It seemed kind of unclear in the video. Either way, good stuff.
This will be cool to do on my future animations. Thanks:)
I am writing out a Star Wars web series and need a little info: how could I make space battles without making them look cheesy?
Very interesting! Thanks so much for that video! One quick question, though, how do you get away with using copyrighted music or movie audio clips in your videos without getting a copyright strike?
What kind of lights do you use, that is to say, what company do you buy them from?
I usually use 2 Arri 150s and an Arri 300. They're a bit pricy.
I know it's awesome you have all that work to make the film more dramatic with color grading but - to me - I kinda like the fact that the legos look like bright color legos just the same.

Can you look at my videos to see what I should improve on? I just got a new camera for Christmas, so my most recent video looks much better.
Appreciate this video. Yesterday I finished shooting my next brickfilm and am now editing. I was wondering how to go about color correcting, especially since I haven't taken advantage of those tools before. Thanks for the tips.
My pleasure :)
@@BrotherhoodWorkshop what software do you use? I really want to try this but cant find a good one
@@thelivingbrick56 Dragonframe for capturing the stills, Premiere Pro for the editing, After Effects for visual effects and color correction.
Kevin do u have to pay for ur stop start animation set I have got one and I make stop start lotr and the hobbit Lego and clay but it isn't that good it is called hue check it out. :D
How do you get to the masks in Adobe After Effects?
I just got the smoug set for christmas, when i put smoug together, i noticed he had certain positions he can be in, how do you make a smooth stop motion with him?
I think that the plug-in is called optical flares... Video copilot is the website that makes those plug-ins (ELEMENT 3D etc.)
You're probably right. Oops, my bad.
BrotherhoodWorkshop :)
AWESOME, very helpful! :)
I still remember when you started! :) wow.
How often do you build whit lego thats not is in your movies
My god, I have the exact same table lamp on the right at 0:05
Brotherhood workshop how does lego get to notice your videos
I just wanna say thanks it helps because I also use after effects
cool!
Wow! These are some advanced editing techniques. Thanks for sharing.
Please make more videos like this your tips is awsome
Nice! I have 2 quick questions. What camera do you use and would Adobe premiere elements 11 be an ok editor?
Adobe Priemiere is an awesome editor. I currently use a Cannon 60D, but I used to use a Cannon T2I
can you please see some of my stop-motions sometime? it would mean so much to me.
That's what I was upgrading from
Can you make a animation from Star Wars 7 trailer?
What video editing software do you use?
That is great! What program do you use?
do you have to do this for every Photo?
super educational, you are awesome!
Thanks for this video
Are you gonna do Star Wars or Indiana Jones?
How do you moving hobbit legs?
What's gonna be ur next hobbit vid

I LOVEE U...
this is very great video.. so helpfull to me... :D
thx for share it
Word of advice: can you do a LONG IN DEPTH TUTORIAL on how you do your special effects? Masking, layer merge, green screen, etc
Thanks for the tutorial! This will be so helpful in my future Brickfilms!
Cool! I have a couple questions. How do you keep your minifigures balanced on a non-stud platform and how many frames do you uses per second?
how long do you usually edit a video?
what kind of software do you use
nice! and awesome work!
What app do you use to edit your videos
Have you tried using the large rock monsters from the old power miners for when you turn a troll to stone? I think it would look more LEGO.
I really like your animations.
What do you use to make your videos?
Can you make a Video about sounds
What animating app do you use
Nice, its so cool to see how you do that!!
Por favor as un video de los vengadores
Thanks this was useful
I almost prefer this kind of video to your actual Brickfilms. They are so interesting.
I appreciate that.
Wow. How do you learn so much?
Lots of practice, and friends who are willing to share their knowledge :)
BrotherhoodWorkshop how long did it take you to learn so much?
Wow very nice effect good job
Incredible how much effort each frame takes! Thanks for the tutorial as always!
what's the first music name ?
How much money was Dragonframe for you? Last time I checked it was $295 and my jaw dropped
I would give istopmotion a try. It's only like $50 last I checked and does most of (but not all) the same things.
Can you do a lighting tutorial?
How did you get big on RUclips?
Cool bro u make awesome videos
What website is that i need to know?
I'm not even going to try to attempt this, but it's SO interesting to see how creative you get with your videos. Keep it up! :)
Do you make your own sound fx? Or do you just grab them from a library?
He gets them from this place (it's in one of the two videos he made for Zachking film school or something like that) but it cost $300 :(
How does the color follow the parts that u want to enhance, when the camera is moving?
I have to keyframe the masks sometimes.
What program do you use
Great video, no wonder your videos look amazing. What do you find better, animating in dragon-frame first and editing in Ae or doing everything in Ae?
I always use DragonFrame first, and only use AE at the very end for VFX and color.
thats grate man! i love your behind the scenes vids! :D
I just now noticed that you don't use tracking to make the after effects objects follow the camera movements, why not?
Sometimes motion tracking is helpful, but generally I haven't found it to be very reliable and tracking by hand has saved me a lot of frustration. Though when it works, motion tracking does save a lot of time.
I've done the snow effect before, really awesome:)
What program did you use?
Amazing video as always what clay do you use ?
Van Aken.
Nice! Love your videos!
