Fun Stop Motion-Like Animation Made in Blender

Behind the scenes that never happened.

If you like stop motion as much as I do, you'll love this animation by Reddit user TheCKLu. At first glance, it looks like some behind-the-scenes footage of real stop motion work, but it is actually made in Blender, and neither the funny clay mouse nor the hands setting it up are real.

Redditors especially noted the changes in the lighting – a nice touch meant to show the passing of time and add a little more realism to the project.

According to the creator's Instagram, this is their first attempt at stop motion, but there's likely more to come as they have already 3D-printed a new character for potential future projects: the dog from the "This Is Fine" meme, with printed-out fire to come.
