What is Stop Motion?

Stop motion also known as stop action. It's fun, creative, able to do a lots of different nice special effects but it is also very time consuming and very hard to do, for example you need to plan very well, maybe practice few shot before actual shot. But overall it goes pretty well if you plan and prepare everything.

There's some questions bought up, time lapse and stop motion.
Some of them said there are pretty much the same but from my opinion, they are very similar, but they're not quite the same. Time-lapse is putting a camera on a spot and capture a frame at set intervals, then playing the frames back at normal speed (24fps). Stop motion is an animation technique, where a frame is taken, objects are then moved/manipulated within the scene, another frame is taken. Conclusion, one is passive (taking pictures) and another is active (changing or manipulating).
