1.4.2.1 STOP-MOTION

The preceding illustration is an example of stop-motion animation. Generally, stop motion animation is confined to three dimensional objects, but is also used in paper cut-out animation. Usually, if a sequence is one-of-a-kind, in that the movements are not registered to any fixed reference point, or can't be duplicated exactly - it's stop motion. Computer motion controlled photography is also stop-motion but the sequence can be exactly repeated any number of times to layer passes for adding lighting and other special effects.
