Boy2 has been making stop-motion videos using Lego mini-figures. I found a slick little Linux utility to convert a series of images into an AVI. VERY useful if you then want to use
`kdenlive` to add audio to said video, or edit it otherwise.
mencoder "mf://*.jpg" -o movie.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg
At some point, I'll post some of his videos.
