]]> Greg Saniatan is a digital creator who regularly amazes social media users with his stop-motion animations featuring LEGO. Recently, Saniatan decided to take his creativity to the next level as part of the promotion for LEGO’s new Botanical Collection.

In a video shared on Instagram, which has already been viewed 28 million times, Saniatan takes a slab of brown LEGO and starts shaping it like it’s made of clay. He “cuts” it with a wire, places it on the potter’s wheel, and even sprinkles it with some “water,” which is actually just see-through bricks.

From there, Saniatan creates the shape of the flower pot, gives it an oven treatment, and even paints it. Of course, all of that is done with LEGO.

Instagram users went on to share their amazement with the video and Saniatan’s creativity in the comments section.

“Jaw dropping! You just keep getting better and better!,” one person commented.

“That’s actually an incredibly accurate demonstration of the pottery process!!!!,” another added.

This isn’t the first time Saniatan impresses social media with his stop motion animations focused on LEGO. A while back he also made a video in which he “painted” Hokusai’s “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” using plastic bricks.

]]> Trevor Carlee has been working in the entertainment industry for more than a decade, and he came up with a creative way to pay homage to his favorite movies and TV shows. He found viral fame thanks to his animated clips where characters made of LEGO take center stage.

Carlee is a talented animator and 3D artist, who attracted over 270,000 followers to his Instagram page after he started working on his viral LEGO clips. He mostly uses Photoshop and Procreate to design textures, torsos, and faces of his LEGO characters, before using his favorite software Blender to animate them.

Translating live-action scenes into LEGO hasn’t been easy, but Carlee sees it as a great training ground for real animation.

“[Animating in LEGO] is still tedious and it takes time, but it takes a lot longer to animate humanoid characters because there’s so many extra joints to be mindful of, and things can seem wrong if you do one motion that’s stiff. But with LEGO, everything is already stiff and it’s such a limit,” he told IndieWire.

Carlee attracted millions of views with his LEGO version of memorable scenes from New Girl, Parks and Recreation, and Fleabag, but we’ve also seen him pay homage to such iconic shows as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Veep, and Arrested Development.

]]> Paris, France, will be the center of the world in 2024. The city is hosting the Summer Olympics this year for the third time in its history while also opening the doors of its iconic cathedral, Notre Dame, once again after it was renovated following a devastating fire in 2019.

Toymaker LEGO recently decided to celebrate Paris and it’s big 2024 with two new sets: Notre-Dame de Paris and Mona Lisa.

Notre-Dame de Paris set contains 4,383 pieces and allows LEGO enthusiasts to craft a faithful brick recreation of the cathedral as it was before the fire. It costs $229.99 at the official LEGO online store and is currently available for pre-order, with shipments beginning in early June.

“The set lets you recreate authentic details, like the bell towers, rose windows, and the central spire surrounded by statues. You can even remove the roof and towers to view the interior columns and arches inside,” says LEGO about the set.

Mona Lisa set, on the other hand, recreates the famous Leonardo Da Vinci painting in 3D alongside a golden frame. Consisting of 1,503 pieces, which is a reference to the year the painting was started, this recreation is using the lighter hue in order to capture the painting’s original color from 500 years ago. The set comes at a price of $99.99 and starts shipping in October.

]]> Most LEGO enthusiasts have piles of old plastic bricks that are leftovers from various projects. Finding ideas to use them can be quite challenging, which is why a group of programmers built an app called Brickit.

Brickit is an artificial intelligence-powered app that helps you make new creations with old LEGOs. With the help of your smartphone camera, the app scans the entire pile of LEGO pieces you have at your disposal and identifies them. Then, it provides several ideas on how to use your bricks with detailed instructions.

“We love building, and we love tech, so we made Brickit — an app that scans jumbles of bricks and helps you turn them into starships, dragonflies, pineapples wearing sunglasses, and whatever else you can imagine,” the developers state.

The basic version of the Brickit app is free and available on iOS and Android smartphones. It can recognize around 100 most common LEGO bricks and comes with a database of more than 2,000 ideas. There is also a premium version that can recognize more than 1,600 different types of LEGO pieces.

]]> LEGO bricks have long transcended their original purpose of being toys. Thanks to the endless possibilities they offer, LEGOs are now being used in all sorts of different ways, including being material for impressive works of art.

Artist Sean Kenney uses LEGOs as the main material for his large-scale animal sculptures. From zebras and eagles to insects and sea creatures, Kenney manages to craft a realistic depiction of animals from every corner of the animal world by using only small plastic bricks.

According to Kenney, LEGOs have been his fascination since a young age. This fascination persisted even when he grew up, with the only difference being that his creations became more sophisticated.

But even as his approach changed and his projects took months to complete, building LEGO models never stopped affording him the same kind of fun. 

“As an art medium, it’s wonderful to see people’s reactions to what I create. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen someone look at my work and frown,” Kenney said in a recent interview with deMilked. “The LEGO makes it inherently whimsical, which I love. Art doesn’t have to be so serious all the time.”

Carlee is a talented animator and 3D artist, who attracted over 270,000 followers to his Instagram page after he started working on his viral LEGO clips.

Translating live-action scenes into LEGO hasn’t been easy, but Carlee sees it as a great training ground for real animation.

“[Animating in LEGO] is still tedious and it takes time, but it takes a lot longer to animate humanoid characters because there’s so many extra joints to be mindful of, and things can seem wrong if you do one motion that’s stiff. But with LEGO, everything is already stiff and it’s such a limit,” he told IndieWire.
