FAQ About The Evolution of Claymation in Stop-Motion Animation

How do animators ensure smooth motion in claymation?
To ensure smooth motion in claymation, animators meticulously plan and execute movements by altering the clay figures in minuscule increments, shooting each adjustment in sequence. They often use onion skinning techniques, where the animator views previous frames overlaid on the current scene, allowing for precision adjustments. Utilizing a consistent pace, careful attention to arcs, and timing also contribute to fluid and cohesive animation scenes.
