For a category containing films that were entries to BRAWL, see Category:Brickfilm Rapidly All Week Long brickfilms
The Brickfilm Rapidly All Week Long contest, commonly abbreviated to BRAWL, is an annual brickfilming contest with a time limit of one week. Participants must create an entire brickfilm from scratch (with the exception of set building, music design, and sound effects) within seven days. BRAWL takes place in the summer, and it has been hosted on the website Bricks in Motion since its inception. The contest was conceived by Andrew Munzer and has been run by various other individuals since 2011. It became an official Bricks in Motion contest in 2017. The current host is Chris Wynn.
BRAWL is the sister contest of the Twenty-four Hour Animation Contest (THAC), which is also officially run by Bricks in Motion.
The first BRAWL[]
The first BRAWL was held on the Bricks In Motion Refugee Camp (the temporary version of the site, while the finished version was still in development) by Andrew Munzer from August 2nd, 2008 to August 9th 2008.[1] Munzer had originally considered using a line of dialogue as the mod element for the contest, but when this idea was subject to criticism, he settled on using the letter and colour mod elements as used in the Twenty-four Hour Animation Contest.[2] BRAWL was more forgiving with the mod element than THAC at the time, requiring only that it appeared in each shot, rather than each frame. This system would eventually be adopted for THAC with THAC XII. The contest received 11 entries and was judged by Nathan Wells, "Night Owl", and Philip Heinrich. Zach Macias was also slated to be a judge but submitted his ballot too late to be included.[3] Final results were calculated by also including a public vote.[4]

BRAWL 2009[]
BRAWL 2009 was hosted by Andrew Munzer and ran from August 23rd to August 30th.[5] It received 19 entries and the judges included Dylan Woodley, Randy "Noodle" Yard, Owen "NOStudios" Hyatt and Munzer himself.[6] Results for the contest took over 3 months to be posted which caused controversy on the Bricks in Motion forum.[7] Annoyed with the magnitude of complaints, Munzer decided to make the community wait even longer for the results after they had been finished,[8] generating further annoyance among the public and even some of the other contest judges.[9][10] In later years, he expressed regret over these actions.[11]

BRAWL 2011[]
Due to his performance during BRAWL 2009 and a conflicting schedule in 2010, Andrew Munzer decided against hosting a BRAWL contest in 2010. Munzer attempted to organise the contest to be held by Philip Heinrich in 2010, but a poll for the next official Bricks in Motion contest resulted in the public choosing a month-long themed contest in September over a BRAWL in August.[12] The future of BRAWL seemed uncertain as Munzer had lost interest in ever hosting it again, but he was contacted by Aaron "Goliathan" Meyer in 2011 who wished to continue the contest on, which Munzer allowed.[13]
BRAWL 2011 was hosted by Aaron Meyer and ran from August 8th to August 15th.[14] It received 41 entries[15] and was judged by Meyer, Joseph Hayden, Aaron Bulger, Harrison Allen, "legostudiosplus", and Billo O'Loughlin. Controversy arose when Meyer first posted the top 10 results in the Bricks in Motion chatroom[16] and later posted the placement of all 41 entries with the order of the top 10 dramatically changed.[17]

BRAWL 2012[]
BRAWL 2012 was once again hosted by Aaron Meyer and ran from August 19th to August 26th. There were 22 films submitted and the judging was handled by Meyer, Jonni Phillips, Chris Wynn and Joseph Hayden.[18][19] However, Meyer accidentally published Wynn's ballot in place of the final results, and decided against correcting this error, meaning the available results are decided solely by Wynn.

BRAWL 2014[]
BRAWL 2014 was hosted by Nathan Rossi and ran from July 20th to July 27th.[22] It received 43 accepted entries (the most ever at the time), which may be viewed here. It was judged by Joseph Hayden, Harry Bossert and Rossi.[23] Some complaints arose when it was announced that the logo of the contest's sponsor, Brick Warriors, was required to be displayed in each entry for a minimum of three seconds.[24] Rossi explained that this was not out of the ordinary in order to be able to acquire sponsors, and that it wasn't even the first brickfilm contest to have such a rule.[25] The logo rule continued to be a requirement in later BRAWLs, to no complaints.

BRAWL 2015 was once again hosted by Nathan Rossi. It ran from July 19th to July 26th 2015 and was judged by Nathan Wells, Zach Macias, Chris Wynn, Christian Colglazier and Rossi.[26] It received 36 accepted entries,[27] and a playlist of the entries can be found here. There was some confusion over the timing of the contest, which was listed as being in GMT, when it was actually running on BST.[28] This led to entries being accepted an hour after the original deadline. The results were announced on July 29th.[29]

BRAWL 2016[]
BRAWL 2016 was hosted by Nathan Rossi and ran from July 17 to July 24, 2016.[31] It was judged by Nathan Wells, Joseph Hayden, Zach Macias, Christian Colglazier and Nathan Rossi. 18 qualifying entries were submitted, which may be viewed here. One of the reasons for the comparatively lower number of entries is that a number of people attempted to make overambitious entries that could not be finished within the time period.[32][33][34] This trend even extended to some of the people who did manage to enter within the time limit, as "rioforce" and Gregory Moore and Garry Moore had to abandon their initial entries in favor of shorter, smaller scale entries. Additionally, another entry, Vous êtes des animaux by "tutur", was rejected for being too disturbing. The results of the contest were announced on August 7.[35]

It received 24 qualifying entries, which may be viewed here.[39] The results were announced on July 9.[40]
