Hey all!
Not much has gone on this week. I have for the most part finished "Not a Hero" and the deadline still looks secure, so no worries there. Just a forewarning: it ended up being VERY short, don't be disappointed- I still feel like it's a great little film. As for this week's news:
-"Not a Hero" coming out on July 8th!
-I'm going to be making a new animating tutorial sometime this week. If I can get it done before Friday night, I'll go ahead and upload it. If not, I'll put it up mid-next week after Not a Hero is uploaded.
-I have some GREAT new MOCs that you guys will get to see very soon. I always say that, but this time I'll give you guys some more information.
.....1) One of the MOCs won't be ready for a while- but it's HUGE and in New York :)
.....2) There may be a laundromat involved with another
.....3) I've said to much already, stay tuned!
-I'll have a new blog exclusive post up pretty soon that shows off some low-quality pictures of this MOC I made that is now destroyed. It's a building, *hint, hint*
That's it for this week! Keep up to date with my blog and YouTube channel, more great stuff is coming your way, thanks for readin' :)

"Not a Hero" COMING SOON!
The latest and undoubtedly greatest film of my own history is coming your way!
Pete Wessel is your beyond average, Average Joe. Upon discovering a mysterious object, Pete develops strange powers that he wants to use for good. But good isn't always so easy for Pete when the world is skeptical of the things he's capable of:
NOT A HERO
ON SUNDAY, JULY 8TH 2012
Stay tuned, because this is NOTHING like any films I've done in the past. Now I have new equipment, new ideas, and a newly tapped desire for perfection.
"Not A Hero"- Coming on July 8th, 2012
Incase you were wondering, if this were a real movie to be released in theaters, it would most likely be rated PG-13 due to a very small amount of 'intense' language. Just a little forewarning to any really young kids or people with extremely sensitive ears :)

Late Night Apologies
Hello everybody,
I have returned! I wanted to make this post before my weekly update to apologize for my virtual absense on not only my blog, but my YouTube channel as well. As you all know, at the end of March, I spent the best week of my life prowling around my favorite place in the world- New York City. Since then, Spring Break came to a speedy end while school came back full-speed.
This led straight into two weeks of end-of-the-year testing. So, after long nights of studying and coffee abuse, the time after brought project after project, one research report after the other. Not to mention Power Points, collaborative math project horrors, and...I think you get the picture.
To make it simple, I've been busy. I'm a student who has big dreams, and hopes to attend a great university in the future. You should know that as much as I would rather animate or make videos for you guys, my education has to come first. I've been up all night (more so than my usual insomnia), and have been knee-deep in other things. I hope you can find it in yourselves to understand :)
The good news is, although I'm still very tired and extremely busy, I am going back into the swing of things. I'll try hard to post my weekly updates and other musings here on the blog, and I will post a new video on my YouTube channel this weekend. Back in this hustle- thanks for your time :D

Weekly Update- March 18th, 2012
So,
Topper here, and this week was calm, yet insanely busy at the same time. However, for you guys this weekend was a very good thing. I say this because the weather wasn't cooperating and I had to cancel my plans, which means I *FINALLY* got a chance to do some animating! It's uploading as we speak, and may I say, it's quite different from my usual short films. Anyways,
-MOCs, MOCs, MOCs... I talk about them all the time. Need I say more? Stay tuned
-More animations coming soon! I have lots of great scripts, if only I had time
-I'll be thousands upon thousands and thousands of miles away from home in about a week. I will try my best to get a video out this Saturday, but the entire following week I doubt that I will be able to read any comments, make any videos, or put out any blog posts. My apologies, but perhaps I'll post a pic or two :)
-Would you guys mind a video of my LEGO instruction manual organization? I think it may be interesting, but I could also be totally off.
-Bear with me for this boring patch, maybe, just maybe, during my second week of Spring Break, I MIGHT be able to put out another stop-motion. Hopefully ;P
That's all for this week, folks. I'm going to try to be more prolific with my blog postings this week, but I just get so caught up in the mess called life. Until next time,

Weekly Update- March 11th, 2012
Hola
Hey guys, Topper here again, and I actually have a lot to say this week. So, sit back, put on your glasses and enjoy the read:) First and foremost, I have more details to share with you guys regarding this big MOC I've been telling you guys a bit about every week for awhile.
-Refering to that MOC, I can tell you all that it's going to be 2.5 green baseplates wide, my biggest MOC yet! Also, it's GREEN and is something located in New York, and will be cluttered with minifigures! Any guesses?
-I'm working on a new stop-motion with a fresh script. Hopefully I'll have a bit of time to animate this week and get it out for you guys on Sunday. It's something quite different from my past animations, and hopefully better quality with a totally different story-board style.
-Plenty more building MOCs to show you all...stay tuned
-More script writing for summer projects and such are in the works
-I finally updated my channel to the new design (I hate it). But, I suggest that you all go and take a look at it, to get used to the new feel.
That's it for this week! More posting w/ pictures a little later tonight. By the Way: Daylight Savings Time is a major bummer. Dear world, I want my hour back
Love,
-TopperTwist
