stop motion animation
Last modified: Thursday, May 24, 2007
In animation stop motion animation is a cinematic process, or
technique used to makes static objects appear as if they were moving. This
technique is commonly used in claymation and puppet-based animation. The objects
are brought to life by breaking up the figure's motion into increments and
filming one frame of film per increment.

The Art of Stop Motion Animation Anyone who is familiar with the films of Willis O'Brien, Ray Harryhausen, Jim Danforth, David Allen and others have experienced the process at work. The Pillsbury Doughboy and Hamburger helper were created using Stop Motion Animation (Their more recent incarnations are being put through their paces using computer graphics).
