The masters of stop motion animation Laika Studios who brought to life Coraline, Paranorman, Kubo (which is on Netflix for the summer) and The Boxtrolls were kind enough to extend an invitation for a behind the scenes tour and gifted us with awesome exclusive goodie bags and posters!
Puppets and actual scenery from Coraline
It's amazing to see how much work and time goes into filming each movie. The puppets have two lines going across the face so the animators are able to detach, switch and change every expression on the characters faces. Some have full face masks as well. Stop motion animation is extremely time consuming as much as it is an art!
