Stop motion (also known as stop action or frame-by-frame) is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own. The object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a continuous sequence. Clay figures are often used in stop motion for their ease of repositioning. Motion animation using clay is called clay animation or clay-mation.
When creating a stalker / cctv style footage stop motion works really well as it almost feels like a chase. The split seconds missed in between each frame add to the suspense. I would like to recreate this at night, with lighting, and try and instal some motion sensored lights to my chosen area of the site. However I need to be careful not to start making a cheesy horror film.
