Yesterday in class we looked at various forms of stop-motion animation, each using the same basic principles but different mediums, allowing the animator to achieve different effects. What I then realised was that the fantastic video to Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer actually used many of these techniques, in particular Claymation and Pixilation.
What also makes the video impressive is the fact that Peter Gabriel was filmed frame by frame in each scene and considering how long stop-motion films take to make, Aardman managed to produce the film within 3 days with a team of animators working on each scene, the list also includes Nick Park who animated the scene with the dancing oven ready chickens.
