思迪离开中国的party上亚的小朋友给她做了一个动画片，描述了她的一些亚状态生活。康康、彬彬和宗宗三人独立完成了整个动画，现在他们又进行了一些修改，虽然制作有点粗糙，但也还挺有意思的，所以我们把这个小动画放到了亚的首页，以表达对年轻一代的期许。

A Little Stop Motion Fun
After receiving some interest in the MUTO video I posted last week I thought I’d post a few of the stop-animation videos that have been popular on the web this past year.
Stop motion animation is a frame-by-frame animation technique that was created at the end of the 19th century. Some pioneers include Ladyslaw Starewicz, a Czech animator, and Willis O’Brien, who animated the giant gorrilla in King Kong. More recently it was Tim Burton‘s The Nightmare Before Christmas which helped to draw new interest in the art.
The current trend moves into the real world, animating objects that would otherwise be inanimate or creating fantastical animation that is surrounded by the real world (as in the case of the BLU animation).
Here is a popular animation by Jelle van Dun from The Netherlands.
And another out of Germany…
There are also hundreds of short digital films on the internet known as Brickfilms which use LEGOs in object stop-motion animation. Here is one based on the movie Grease.
Stop animation can also be seen in advertising. Here is a Sony Bravia LCD ad filmed in NYC that used 2 tons of clay, 200 rabbits, 40 animators and one 30 foot giant rabbit.
Pikapika uses long exposures and stop animation with flashlights.
Also, check out this stop-motion made with Polaroid photos.
