    I think the lEGO videos are cool. I am making some LEGO Starwars videos at home, it's harder than it looks.

    I think that it is quite clever because they have to take individual photos for every part of the videos.

    I think it's cool how they put together different photos to make it look like an actual live video.

    I think that making that must have taken quite a long time to build, take the pictures and then make it into a video, but I think all of them are really funny!:)

    I WATCHED ALL THE LEGO VIDEOS IT WAS COOL BECAUSE THEY HAD TO MOVE THE LEGO PIECES ONE BY ONE AND IT WOULD HAVE TO USE ALOT OF LEGO PIECES TO BUILD THE SCULPTURE AND TAKE UP ALOT OF SPACE. IF I DID THAT IT WOULD TAKE ME ABOUT ONE MONTH JUST BUILDING BUT IF I HAD TO GO TO SCHOOL AND AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS IT WOULD TAKE ME TWO MONTHS BUT IT DEPENDS ON HOW GOOD AND FAST YOU ARE.

    I watched the lego versions of the gymnastics events and a few real Olympians videos. I preferred the real London 2012 gymnastics videos to the lego ones, because they were more dramatic and realistic. I liked the speed, vaults, somersaults, and the final finishing presentations.

    I liked the way that the start - stop motion was used for the sprinting.

    I thought the gymnastics were really cool because it was all made out of lego and that the people were always smiling!
