LEGO Monster Fighters animation. What we worked on

The whole Monster Fighter gang!

Lord Vampyre awakes!
  

Vampyre speeds down the road in his bitchin' hearse!

The Zombie graveyard!

Map of the Monster Realm!


These are from a web "Story of" video on the LEGO site. It tells the story of the new line of Monster Fighters Lego sets.

I designed the look of the video, storyboarded it, then had to do about 45 illustrations that were on multiple layers to be animated in After Effects by Chris, our animation wizard. He really knows how to make 2D images come alive. 
I also had help with the coloring from my good friend Craig. Thanks Craig!

The sound design and narration was done elsewhere.

Check out the animation here!

  2. Dear Robert L King!

    I sent a message to your e-mail but it was wrong so I send you here :) Sorry the previous, but accidentally I sent in my brother profil :) SOO!

    I found a nice picture ("the cemetery one") and I want to ask can I use it for a video?
    My best writer, Darren Shan made a competition and I wanted to join and your picture would fit to the video.

    I will very happy and grateful if you allow to me :)
    A nice hungarian band gave me their special permission to my video just I used an others picture (yours) in my video.
    If you want I will show you the video later :)

  3. Unfortunately, permission to use the cemetery image for your video is not mine to give, I don't own the license, LEGO does. You'd have to contact someone at LEGO in Enfield, Ct. to obtain permission, sorry.

    Good luck with your project!
