FAQ About The Evolution of Claymation in Stop-Motion Animation

What is claymation in stop-motion animation?
Claymation is a type of stop-motion animation where each animated piece, or scene, is made from malleable substances like clay or Plasticine. Animators sculpt figures and environments that can be manipulated frame by frame to create the illusion of movement when played back in rapid succession. This technique is distinct because of its reliance on the tactile medium of clay, allowing for unique textures and expressions.
