Stop-Motion Animation
Move things one frame at a time and watch your toys come alive
Stop-motion animation brings objects to life by photographing them in tiny increments. Use clay, LEGO, paper cutouts, food, or literally anything. It's like directing your own movie with an infinite budget for special effects. Modern apps make it dead simple — just snap photos and the app stitches them into a video.

The classic Wallace & Gromit films used about 4.5 tons of plasticine modeling clay during production, and each second of animation required 24 individual photographs.
