LEGO Stop-Motion Animated Re-Creation of the ‘Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens’ Teaser Trailer

A LEGO enthusiast who goes by the name Snooperking spent the better part of the day recreating a shot-for-shot stop-motion LEGO animation of the newly-released trailer for Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens . Snooperking explained how he created the scenes.

I had nothing to do yesterday so I started once the trailer came out so i built the Falcon, The X-Wing, The speeder bike thingy, a mini tie fighter, tried to build all the sets, and get all my minifigures put together… then just filming took forever especially the the special effects… i tried stop motion in front of the green screen and that was hard and by this time it was 3am so like more than 12 hours (i took a 3 hour break somewhere) and then finally gave up and used sewing string for the X-Wing and just kind of moved my camera around the falcon…

Here’s the official trailer that was released by Disney and Lucasfilm on Thanksgiving Day.
