A short introduction to stop motion animations
Stop motion is an animation technique in which characters and objects moved frame by frame by changing their physical position and taking a picture of each frame. Animators create the illusion of motion because each frame has a slightly altered position of the object in the shot, giving characters a sense of life and objects a sense of realism. Then the moving images turn to a video and it gets completed by voices of the characters and the music of the scene.
Six types of stop motion animation, each named after the material used to create the motion.
Object animation
This type of stop motion animation is used when real objects can be used for moving images, which are mostly used for advertising videos.
Clay animation
It animates any material made of clay, plastic, or similar materials, and characters are usually used to make cartoons.
Puppet animation
Puppet characters are made of different materials in which their joints are movable, and their movements are filmed frame by frame.
pixelation
This type of stop-motion animation involves the performance of real actors in fact. Real people play the part.
Cut out
It is created by cutting all kinds of paper, cardboard, fabric and moving frame by frame
Silhouette
