Stop-motion animation involves photographing and combining sequential images of an object that has been moved in small increments to create the illusion of movement. The Magic Roundabout from 1965 was one of the earliest examples that used this technique to move characters tiny amounts between each photo to create flowing motion when viewed as a film. Later examples like The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb in 1993 featured improved animation with clearer storylines, voiceovers, and background music. Wallace & Gromit - Curse of the Were-Rabbit from 2005 took 5 years to create due to its highly detailed stop-motion animation combining both clay figures and hand-drawn elements.
