Stop-Motion Thing of the Day: Aardman, the British animation studio best known for their work on Wallace and Gromit, follows up their “world’s smallest stop-motion animation” with another record-setting stop-motion promotion for the Nokia N8.
‘Gulp’ is a short film created by Sumo Science at Aardman, depicting a fisherman going about his daily catch. Shot on location at Pendine Beach in South Wales, every frame of this stop-motion animation was shot using a Nokia N8, with its 12 megapixel camera and Carl Zeiss optics. The film has broken a world record for the ‘largest stop-motion animation set’, with the largest scene stretching over 11,000 square feet.
