cutout animation 2015

THIS IS A CUTOUT ANIMATION WHICH WAS MADE WITH A GROUP OF MY PEERS.

Cutout animation is created by literally cutting out the models, props, backgrounds.. anything flat that can be used to create an animated piece.

The actual animation is created by moving the model or prop a little each time you take a shot, from your camera.

Before he became a director, Terry Gilliam provided some silly animations for a silly comedy. This silly comedy was called Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Lotte Reiniger:

Made intricate cut outs (from the early 1920s - late 1970s), 

John Ryan:
