What is Stop Motion Photography?
Stop motion is an animated filmmaking technique. In this technique, the objects are physically transformed in small increments between individual collected frames such that when the sequence of frames is played back, they appear to display independent motion or change.
In simpler terms, stop motion photography is the same thing that we do, but in stop motion photography, one image is shot then, the subject is moved, then another image is shot, and the subject is moved again. When all of those photos are edited into a continuous video, the motion comes together.
Creating a stop motion animation can demand a large number of stills. As a general rule, 10 to 15 shots per 1 second of video–roughly 300 photos for a 30-second clip, are taken.
There are a few types of Stop Motion Photography, they are:
- Object-Motion — moving or animating objects
- Claymation — moving clay
- Pixilation — moving or animating people
- Cut-out-Motion — moving paper/2D material
- Puppet Animation — moving puppets
- Silhouette Animation — backlighting cutouts
