Example Films

Stop motion animation is an amazing and fully immersive film making technique - the only limitation really is your imagination!  Below you can see a selection of some of our favourite stop motion films.  The following have mostly been created in Zu3D or Cloud Stop Motion, by animators between the ages of 4 and 100.
