Unlike traditional animation that is often associated with family-friendly or children's content, adult animation caters to grown-up viewers who appreciate more sophisticated and often darker narratives.

Stop motion animation is a technique in which physical objects or puppets are manipulated and photographed one frame at a time to create the illusion of movement when played back at a regular speed. This process involves posing and photographing the objects, then moving them slightly and capturing another frame, and so on. When these frames are played in sequence, they create the illusion of fluid motion.

In animation, images are manipulated to create the illusion of movement, bringing characters, objects, and environments to life.
