Types of Stop Motion Animation
Claymation
„Clay animation is a unique form of stop-motion animation that uses figures made of clay. It involves sculpting characters and background sets out of clay.
Puppet Animation
„Puppet Animation is a technique that incorporates the animation of still puppets. Similar to claymation in many ways, the characters and sets are already made in full forms instead of being made while the animation is being shot.
Cut-Out Animation
„Cut-out Animation is a technique of producing animations using flat characters, props and backgrounds cut out from various materials such as, cardboard, stiff photographs​
Object Animation
„Object Animation involves the animated movements of non-drawn objects such as toys, blocks, dolls, etc
Silhouette Animation
„Silhouette Animation involves characters who are only visible as black silhouettes. This is usually accomplished by back-lighting detailed cardboard cut-outs, though other methods exist. It is partially inspired by shadow play.
Pixilation Animation
„Pixilation is one of the most difficult forms of stop-motion animation. In this form live actors change their movement in each frame of the animation. They pose while multiple frames are taken and the position changes slightly in each frame.​
