Stop Motion Animation-Stop-Very Awesome-Stop. (Telegram Jokes)

You know what I love? Stop-motion animation. It's seriously the best! It is soooo much work to make things move that shouldn't be moving. I love it.

I stumbled upon this small animation company called Sumo Science. These dudes apparently made the world's smallest AND the world's largest stop-motion animation films using a Nokia N8 (aka camera phone aka super bad ass--so they are also kind of Nokia commercials but so what? It helped them make something really cool.)

Here is the small film, appropriately titled Dot.


Nokia 'Dot' from Sumo Science on Vimeo.

And here is the large film, titled Gulp.



It doesn't look huge, so watch the "making of."



Neat, huh? I found my new dream job while watching the "making of" video.... pixilation artist, aka human puppet. How awesome would that be?!!?!? Essentially the lead actor of a film but you don't have to do shit. Loveeee it!


Recommend some good stop-motion animation, if ya got any!
