This is HADARI, a short stop-motion pilot about a one-armed wooden samurai kicking ass, and, at least from what I saw, not bothering to take names. That’s how I like to do it too. He uses a number of different arm attachments to dispatch enemies in his way, who spray
This is ‘Dreaming’, a stop motion video created by artist DariusTwin (previously: this amazing video) using a series of long-exposure light painting photographs with no editing afterwards.

Created by photographer Brett Foxwell of bfophoto using 12,000 leaves he collected and pressed, this is a stop motion animation of a leaf morphing shape and color over the course of two and a half minutes. Organizing all those leaf photos into a fluid animation must have been quite the

This is a video of stop-motion animator/self-proclaimed video wizard Kevin Parry recreating the Netflix intro using about $30 worth of yarn and three days’ time. Admittedly, impressive, although it would have been more impressive if he also managed to make the ‘TA-DUM’ sound effect out of yarn too. But the
This is a video of artist and flipbook maker dP Art Drawing (aka Trương) stop-motion flipping the incredible 1,400 page Iron Man versus Thanos flipbook he drew — the longest he’s ever made, spending over 736 hours on the project (some of which is seen in the video). According to
