In this documentary, we follow Justin, a young design student, as he travels to LEGO headquarters in Denmark in pursuit of one of the most hotly contested jobs in the world – a LEGO set designer. If I were an industrial designer, I’d go there too. Denmark+Lego = score 😅
I'm sure we would all be thrilled to be locked in that vault of archived sets. It would be a dream come true! And it's impressive to see how organized everything is in there. Such a fantastic documentary!
While this documentary was very interesting. It feels like this company is just like any other. I work at one too. Lot of corporate BS and cringeness. I love Lego and I spent thousands of euros already..but yeah, at the end, its all about money. Its sad that despite they make billions they increase the price every year..i guess just because they can, not because they need to.
unfortunetly LEGO lost its spirit, charm and uniqueness during the years. Ridiculous pricing, cheap and uninspirited models and inconsistent quality is the 1st what comes to my mind when I think about LEGO now.
Absolutely loved the video. So wholesome to see how Justin started his journey, and to then find him on Instagram and realise that I have several builds in the same room as me right now that he himself designed. Fantastic!
Its not that insane the story of inspiration. I wanted me an engineer cuz my aunt gave me a star wars lego and i tought was so cook now i study aeroespace engineer
"Our ultimate ambition is to reach every child, in every country, all over the world" Yeah, with LEGO prices, they cant even reach all kids from very well developed countries. The ambitions feels more like: "reach every rich child, in every very well developed country, definetly not all over the world"
Ha ha, here’s my story!)) In about 2013-2014 don’t remember exactly, LEGO announced world wide competition between customers, so they built something with LEGO, and present via their website with the photos and descriptions. We with my daughter, presented a tailor/designer store, I’m a tailor myself that’s was my idea. To make my story short. They “LEGO”released in the next series of the "LEGO FRIENDS" exact with the same idea))) We our self, did not received a single bric for that idea )) That is how lego designers works))
I'm confused about when this was filmed. They mention 2019 when there will be 100 minifigs to 1 person and then talk about a lego series that won't come out till 2016. But it looks like it was all recorded recently.
How is this documentary released in January of 2024? Justin Ramsden's earliest Lego set was released in 2015. He's been working there at least nine years as of the release of this video, and he's designed 127 sets in that time. Is this documentary republished from somewhere else? And, if not, why have you just been sitting on this footage for the last nine years?
For those who are curious; As a dane who grew up in Billund, my family actually decided to move away from the city after having lived there for over 20 years. The cities reputation of being the capital for children has brought a lot of entitled families, or as we call them in Denmark "Curling parents", which has led to the downfall of the city.
The city is filled with snobbery and entitlement, especially in the schools. Which is something that is traditionally frowned upon in Denmark, especially outside the higher class communities.
It's also funny to me how Lego literally runs Billund. Lego single-handedly controls the city and are in charge of almost all building projects in the inner city. The municipality of Billund let's Lego do whatever they want, it feels like.
