Like we talked before, here comes the stop motion video clip from the Netherland guys. Rogier van der Zwaag’s got insane by producing a “stop motion” animation for Grindin.

Ahm…what the hack is stop motion?
Stop-motion (also known as stop-action or frame-by-frame) is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own. The object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a continuous sequence. Wikipedia

This ‘making of ‘ was made by Susie Oosting. It shows the process in which the maker of the video, and one third of the group, Rogier, lost his sanity. He is momentarily in rehab. If you haven’t seen the final video check it now!

Here we go with the final version:

The first sop motion technic in this style is the“Komposition in blau” (composition in blue) from Oskar Fischinger1938.
