So, in short, the character movement and walking or driving is Stopmotion, while facial expressions and sound is edited, as well as anything that floats.

Where are you and why aren't you out there making Brickfilms anymore? This is seriously a fantastic piece of work and an inspiration to me as an animator/filmmaker. Would love to see some more stuff from you.
mobdeli I have seen a few of these yes! I didn't know you had done the "Cant Stop Building" video, great work. Do you have plans for any upcoming animation projects of your own that aren't commissions from Lego?
mobdeli Like the classic Ice Planet theme from way back? Very nice. If you're ever interested in collaborating on some live action stuff, let me know. I'm working on some live action short films as well as one big animation project this year here in TN. You can check out my stuff at my website if you're interested (www.niesproductions.com) Always looking to connect with other filmmakers (especially people who enjoy stop motion)
Holy crap, I remember seeing this back in like 2014 and thinking this was fantastic! And now in 2021, I still think this is one of the best Lego animations
You know what, this is one of if not the only best animation in a brickfilm. The animation + lighting makes this a masterpeice. 24 frames per second is hard and to see a person make a 8 MINUTE video SHOT AT 24 FPS is so darn respectable. Also the animation tells the story perfectly. I actually turned the volume down and showed to my friend (who didn't see this brickfilm) and he understood everything perfectly. You are probably the Best brickfilmer I've ever seen cause of this.
thank you so much! i think it's really important that films work with no sound so they can be understood in any language! thanks for watching and your nice comment :)
This film is an absolute masterpiece. I constantly find myself forgetting that this is stop motion because it is so smooth. I also love the opening scene with the scorpions.
Watching this for the first time in, like, 11 years and I gotta say, it's as good as I remember, if not better. I feel like there's a lot more that I appreciate here than I could back when I was a kid. Greaf job, man
6:27 only the first 3 pharaohs of the first dynasty buried their servants alongside them. Afterwards they were given painted figurines called "Shabti" to replace them. A much more friendly practice, I assure you.
This is probably the most perfect stop motion film I have ever seen. I remember watching this a lot when I was a kid but as an adult I appreciate all the hard work and effort it took to make this.
This is such an incredible animation, I had no idea it was made 12 years ago! & on top of that you’re still responding to comments 12 years later?! Instant sub from me.
i remember watching these videos as a child hood just came back to it when i found my old legos are remembered this video. thanks for being a part of my childhood
This video is SO underrated, this is one of the best animated lego films I ever seen. This was created in 2011, so the camera quality during that time wasn’t very good, but this... Is um you know, the best! Every one watching this video, like the video!!!
Damn this brings back memories. And still its the best Lego animation on TH-cam. When you watch it you really have the feeling you're watching a actual series on tv.
Mobdeli, oh my god, I just saw an lego pyramid in like insta. IMMEDIATELY made me remember this animation, god I haven’t seen it in what feels like 10 years, my favorite of ALL TIME. There’s no topping this I loved it then and I’m still in love with it now. INCREDIBLE WORK
Wow, that was a great animation ! One of the best I have ever sceen ! :) You are a great source of inspiration ! I hope you will be making more of those !
Its so funny and unexpected where it takes everything, it doesn't do any movie stereotypes, it does have character stereotypes but there done in such an obscure way that its unrecognizable to predict want will happen like the evilness character dying almost instantly in the first 1/4 of the film really throws an unexpected factor, the chardonnay joke is so well funny XD and the two scorpions fighting at the start was so anticlimactic and hilarious.

this is the highest quality animation
Watch MichelHickoxFilms. they are also awesome.
oh yeah, and the lego movie.
Gods of animation
michel hickox is good but he makes films for little kids and the lego movie isnt stopmotion

hah thanks! really appreciate that, so glad you like it
Make that 11 years.
@@mobdeli How many light sources did you use? Just the background or some in front of the figures/above?

Wow, 11 years old and he’s still replying to questions. You my good sir, are a legend.
It’s rare to find a brick film with such great voice acting. This is definitely a Stop-Motion to remember.
Thanks, I'll be sure to tell the actors!
Wow... just wow!
Didn’t expect to see you here! I’m a big fan of your LEGO Minecraft animatons btw
I can’t believe this is still one of the best stopmotions ever 12 years later
so glad you like it! i love when people leave comments like this, makes me very happy
@@mobdeli Wow you replied nobody with over 1K subscribers normally replies

I remembered when I watch this Lego Egyptian video in 2013 and I still like watching it ever since. Great Stop Motion.
thanks so much!
Somehow, every year, I end up watching this brickfilm again! XD At 3:16 it's just like me talking about this video!
Definitely one of my favorites as well.

All the time
It's like a real life film

Absolutely Amazing! Dr. Theodore was really funny!
Watched this when I was in grade 5 and loved it, now I’m going into university and still love it
that makes me so happy!
This is the kind of level of devotion and production that brought us the aesthetic of the lego movie. Way to go guys this is incredible!
wow thanks! im proud to say my videos predate the lego movie haha
Amazing, perfect sound and video connection
What an outstanding brickfilm! A true masterpiece
This film is an absolute masterpiece. I constantly find myself forgetting that this is stop motion because it is so smooth. I also love the opening scene with the scorpions.
thanks a lot, believe it or not that scorpion scene was the first stop motion shot i ever did!

I have watched this many times love it, funny and top quality stopmotion, this has to be a top ten best stopmotion film in my
Books!
Amazing spear wobble, set up and camera angles. "The attention to detail - Absolutely amazing."
This is probably the most perfect stop motion film I have ever seen. I remember watching this a lot when I was a kid but as an adult I appreciate all the hard work and effort it took to make this.
that makes me so happy! im glad you could watch it as a kid and revisit it as an adult.

Well, at least he still had the wine! Haha, great work, one of the best I've seen!

And still its the best Lego animation on TH-cam. When you watch it you really have the feeling you're watching a actual series on tv.
I love hearing that, thank you! It's so cool to have made something that makes you have positive memories!
This was beautifully done, with the typical Lego humor included; we loved watching it!!! Thank you.

Fantastic movie, really loved it! so many details, really beautifully done! :)
Awesome vid! This is by far one of the best brickfilms I have ever seen and it deserves way more views than it has gotten!
Awesome and unbelievably good animation and scenery. Love the mix up of real and Lego set design. I most definitely subscribed. Good work.
one of the most enjoyable Lego stop motions i have ever watched, very very good.

I’ve rewatched this so many times. It’s one of the first brickfilms I ever saw on TH-cam. It holds up incredibly well for being 9 years old!
Have you done any animation in recent years?
haha awesome im so happy you liked it and continue to like it - what part is your favorite?
The ending has always been very memorable.
The set is amazing!
thanks so much, lotta pieces!
This is truly amazing, you should make part two.
it was made 7 years ago so i think the chances of that happening are very slim
This is amazing.
oh this brings back soooo many memories!
:) awesome!!
@@mobdeli welcome to my childhood
Fantastic and hilarious!
You are the best guy on this stuff!!!!
This deserves millions of views!
Great vid!!!! Fantactic Audio!!!!
Awesome! one new of the few stopmotions that looks like the words actually come from the figures!
thanks, means a lot - took a lot of time!
the best movie ive seem great work :D
One of the best so good.

I love this video!
BEST animation EVER
It’s 12 years old yet still fun to watch to this day
im so glad you like it, hopefully it's timeless!
Completely captivating!
cool thanks! glad you like it
For the time this would have been the best stop motion, the lighting, the set, the use of actual sand and the smoothness is amazing
thanks, really glad you like it!
Nice speedy reply for a 9 year old video, honestly this deserves way more views than it has
@@fanddbricks8645 love interacting with youtube comments - just happy you dig it!
