im not to good at using computer animation and flash its tricky and they dont look life like

Stop-frame animation is when a film or video camera is used to take just one frame at a time, then the subject is moved a little, then another shot is taken... and so on...

Claymation is the most popular example - animations like Creature Comforts, Wallace and Gromit and Chicken Run.

i used this way when filming the short animation its quite easy i used an apple mac but each second and frame takes a while

claymation-is one of many forms of stop motion animation. Each animated piece, either character or background, is "deformable"—made of plasticine.

this is my favourite type of animation even though it takes time i like it and will use this way when i create mine.i used clay mation when i made my very short animation clip :) and its fun

rotascoping-is an animation technique in which animators trace over live-action film movement, frame by frame, for use in animated films.

i dont really get this type of animation. its mostly copying and drawing which i dont like

Phenkaistoscope-was an early animation.One variant of the phenakistoscope was a spinning disc mounted vertically on a handle. Around the center of the disc a series of pictures was drawn corresponding to frames of the animation.

i quite like this animation but it seems you couldnt have a long animation on it it only lasts a few seconds like a flip book type

we watched some animations first one was called *neighbours and being nice towards each other beause they were fighting over a flower and were people being pixelation used and noises through out because there was no speaking it was funny and understanding.
second
*two sisters chalk drawings used it was hard to undertand it and watch it i didnt really like it.
*then it was sunset strip using hundreds of pictures and patterns and colours set in a film it was quite boring.
* the mill was a oil on glass one the story is about a girl with a big animation and is friends with a bee because her dads a bee keeper its okay the music is dramatic.
* the lucky dip is the last one we watched its 3D model about a girl in a fair ground and sees a bunny trapped in an arcade machine.its dark and lighting she saves him but he runs away to be free.its quite sweet i liked that one the best.

Were now starting to do animation and i wanna use clay motion soon i need to upload my mini animation which i made at school. im starting to plan what my animation will be about and characters i need ideas??? comment
