The Deserted Duck (The Genre Games 2023)

Bricks in Motion started this contest in August, hosted by Locker 74 Productions. I enjoy multiple film genres but Survival movies are always fascinating to me and The Deserted Duck is heavily influenced by Castaway featuring my favourite actor Tom Hanks. Pixar movies aren't a genre but maybe they should be so I had to give a nod to that favourite of mine with the clouds and character of Duck. Duck also shows up

Thank you for you encouragement. Lego Duck has been an inspiring character to me for stories lol

[@BOZBETPRODUCTIONS]

Great animation. Beautiful character arc, you made me feel a lot of empathy for the duck in such a short film. Nice work!

Thank you for your compliments! Lego Duck has been an inspiring character for me, so I'm glad you liked them :)

So, this would be the duck genre.

[@benjaminkroeker9225]

LOL yea apparently its genre I've tried starting a long time ago with my video "The Snow Duck" but it hasn't "taken off" yet

[@buggobricks]

So, this would be the sad genre.

[@benjaminkroeker9225]

Yea... every survival movie has that loss of a character that makes us burst into tears and curse the film for doing a genre bait and switch lol

[@buggobricks]

@@benjaminkroeker9225 Wilson? Lol. It’s true though.
