I came across Londoner Rebecca Manley’s cardboard stop-motion videos completely by accident. I was looking up websites for graphic design inspiration and was intrigued. Let’s watch:
The first thing I noticed was how lifelike the animation is. The characters aren’t jerky like Gumby, but move smoothly with believable effects. In the shot with the bear and pig feet walking, the knees bend! The pig has a distinct walk where its neck moves apart from its shoulders. The animators did a great job. The cardboard world is a nice medium for stop-motion–more unique than clay or action figures. What do you think?
