Amazing Time Lapse Details And Behind The Scenes Clips From PARANORMAN!

If you have the time, I recommend watching these amazing behind the scenes (BTS) clips from Laika's PARANORMAN. I've also thrown in a time lapse of the manual work that it takes to slowly move a character(s) along frame by frame.

Laika are the same guys that created the 3D stop motion movie CORALINE. Their expertise is beyond reproach and the work that goes into a feature length stop motion movie is really very remarkable.

There's about 20 minutes of total footage here, and definitely worth your while. Love how they create the bodies and faces of the characters - those new 3D printers are very cool; I need to get one!

Here's the movie's storyline:
A small town comes under siege by zombies. Who can it call? Only misunderstood local boy Norman (voiced by Kodi Smit-McPhee), who is able to speak with the dead. In addition to the zombies, he'll have to take on ghosts, witches and, worst, of all, grown-ups, to save his town from a centuries-old curse. But this young ghoul whisperer may find his paranormal activities pushed to their otherworldly limits.

PARANORMAN opens on August 17 in the US and Canada.

Enjoy...
