Where nothing in computer animation is real, in stop-motion animation the animators film actual plasticine figures moving across miniature sets–one frame at a time. Each second of film comprises 24 shots, and the creators must make minuscule adjustments to their characters after each click of the shutter to create the illusion of continuous motion.
