Stop motion animation is a filmmaking technique where physical objects, puppets, or clay figures are photographed frame by frame, with small movements made between each shot, to create the illusion of motion when played back in sequence. It's used by animators and filmmakers in productions ranging from classic films like Wallace and Gromit to modern studio features like Coraline, as well as by hobbyists creating short videos. The process is labor-intensive, requiring patience, precise planning, and attention to lighting and continuity.
