10) Stop frame animation

This is a fairly old form of animation that involves taking several photos that have something slightly changed in each picture, this is common with clay as people can mould the clay into different positions that can mimic movement. There are 24 frames to a second of film and therefore each stop frame animation is made up of still images which are projected at that frame rate. Examples are Jason and the Argonauts by Harryhausen and Pes.
