Lego spoof trailer of Inception becomes popular hit
June 12th, 2012 - 11:22 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattLondon, June 12 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A group of seven British students have generated a Lego-form spoof trailer based on the movie Inception.
The clip video shows a Lego take on the most significant moments of Christopher Nolan‘s film. The video, which has become popular among Internet users, was created by visual effects and concept design students Pedrom Dadgostar, Hollie Price, Jack Milton, Simon Stirrup, Sam Serridge, Jack Bosworth and Sidney Thibault.
Other Lego montages of blockbuster films and football moments have previously become Internet hits. In addition, several stand up routines from British comedian Eddie Izzard have also adapted to Lego form by fans. These videos have proved extremely popular.
Nevertheless, the video has not actually been generated by actual stop motion Lego but a digitised CGI Lego, like that featured in video games like Lego Batman: The Videogame and Lego Indiana Jones.
The spoof was in fact an academic team project, which spanned 12 weeks, representing more than 1000 hours work from Team Hourglass. The team was behind another popular internet clip, the Lego version of The Matrix.
