Tennis Match

It's game, set and match in today's video (sorry - it's a bad joke, but I just had to give it a try!)

Remember to read the video description, as it's kind of important.

So, I recently managed to acquire both of the minifigure tennis players (there's a store near me that does series 3, 4, 7 and 8 packs). At first I was quite disappointed, as I wanted to get gorilla suit guy, but then I realised that since I have both, I can do a tennis match.

I spend a lot of time at my grandparents, where I have a really basic animation setup and loads of 80s LEGO, so I took up some minifigures and ended up doing this. I didn't have much time for this (chores, dinner, homework etc) which is why it's quite short, although I did think it would amount to something a little bit longer.

When I have my new computer, which should be quite soon, I'm going to try and do a short animation quite regularly. At some point, that'll include a tennis rematch. They're great minifigures and I really want to get the digital ball movement right (it's a bit dodgy in this video - my computer's so laggy that I can't tell what the actual frame will look like while I'm editing) so watch out for more tennis!

Oh, and there's something else which will be regular too - Slender Man. Call it an Easter Egg. He's really prominent in this video because I want you to notice him, so that you'll keep looking for him in future videos...

Finally, here are some clues towards my next videos, both stop-motion and live-action:

• Pirates
• Grave
• Bat
• Watching
• Dream
• Tree

Good luck figuring out what all that means!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!

Treasure hunters?

Here's a little teaser for an upcoming animation. I haven't actually started filming yet, but I've got most of the sets built, and it shouldn't take too long.

The guy on the left, with the spiky brown hair, is Caden Hawke, and the guy on the right is his as-yet-unnamed sidekick. They're a two-man, treasure-hunting team. As for what they're searching for, you're just going to have to wait and see...

Monster Crab Clash!

I got it today.

And I got it cheap.

And I bought Wreck Raider, but that hasn't come yet.

Really pleased. Upload pictures soon hopefully.

Productions...now Studios!

For several reasons, Jampot Productions is now...

Jam Pot Studios!

For anyone that's interested, here's why:

1) Jampot needed a massive revamp. The logo was a dying calf, really.

2) There's a publisher based in New Zealand who is also called Jampot Productions. We've both had quite a few mix ups, so I decided to change. If you're reading this Jampot, I'm still working on changing tthe blog title!

There were some other reasons, but I don't want to post them.

Thanks to everyone who's supported me thus far, and as I enter a new era of Jampot, I hope you'll continue to do so.
