Behind The Scenes On ‘Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl’: A Look At The Stop Motion Process At Aardman Animations

deadline.com:

The prospect of creating a stop motion film is daunting, to say the least. The process of taking a photo, altering a scene slightly, then taking another photo, over and over can almost make the medium seem pointlessly complicated for a filmmaker… and yet, there is something about the handcrafted aesthetic of a stop motion film that can’t be matched by anything digital.

And that special something is where Aardman Animations has made their mark. In their first big film outing since 2008’s A Matter of Loaf and Death, the iconic duo from Aardman Animations return for Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.

Gromit becomes concerned that Wallace is becoming too dependent on his inventions, and his fears are proven right when Wallace’s new “Smart Gnome” Norbot seems to develop a mind of its own.

In anticipation of the film, Deadline was given a tour of Aardman Animations studio and a behind-the-scenes look at the incredible process of bringing the handcrafted, stop motion picture to life.
