History
In 2008, Robin Blaisot and Rémi "R-creator" J. decided that the French brickfilming community, mainly present on Dailymotion and the BrickPirate forums, should have a website in which they would share their brickfilms and help each other. They created 'brickabrack.forumactif.org', later called brick-a-brack.net and Brick à Brack gained progressively in popularity.

In 2012, the community moved to a totally hand-crafted website, Brick-a-brack.com.

In 2017, Brick à Brack gained Recognized LEGO Fan Media (RLFM) status, in January 2018, Brick à Brack became a Recognized LEGO Online Community (RLOC).

In November, 2017, Brick à Brack announced the availability of their website in English.

In April 2018, Brick à Brack introduce a community map where members can share their location and a brickfilming event calendar.

In July 2018, Brick à Brack held the #SummerContest2018, a two month event consisting of weekly challenges with many prizes that were given out.

On February 21, 2022, the servers hosting the website crashed, and were unable to be restored. On February 25, the website returned on a new server with all data from before July 2021 intact. 70 percent of the data from after July 2021 was recovered and re-added to the website in the next few days.

On September 17, 2022, Brick à Brack announced that they had acquired Brickfilms.com, which had been mostly dormant for the previous 14 years. Brickfilms.com had been the central location for the English-speaking brickfilming community from late 2000 until 2008, when disagreements with new owners caused the community of the time to found and migrate to Bricks in Motion instead. Brick à Brack announced their intentions to preserve historical content and launch a new merger website, Brickfilms.com by Brick à Brack, in 2023.

On January 5, 2023, Brick à Brack domain was blocked and now redirect to the Brickfilms.com website.
