Stop-frame movies are shot frame-by-frame, where each image is a little different from the previous one, creating the illusion of animation. Most cartoons are done frame-by-frame, and all claymation movies are too. Stop Motion Studio works by previewing what your camera sees, and when a frame is ready, you simply "capture" and move to the next. When you are done, Stop Motion Studio can play back your movies and save them for later.
