  2. What Is Stop Motion Animation? • “In animation stop motion animation is a cinematic process, or technique used to makes static objects appear as if they were moving. This technique is commonly used in claymation and puppet-based animation. The objects are brought to life by breaking up the figure's motion into increments and filming one frame of film per increment.” -http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/S/stop_motion_animation.html
