I actually did this when I was a kid. You take some kite string and tie it with one end up high and one end down low. Then, you can build your legos upside down around the string and place them so that the string fits into the grooves. You also have to balance it too. Then, you can let the contraption slide down the string, hopefully with a bumper of some sort at the end. Anyway, for the purposes of filming, you can build your set and have it sitting sideways to match the angle of the line. Then, you could simulate movement by having stuff slide down the line. This is just an idea... Chris Damon,
