Stop Motion Animation
Where artistry meets imagination, handcrafted frame by frame.
The Art of Motion, The Power of Story
We collaborate exclusively with Yamination Studios, our trusted stop motion animation partner for over a decade. Together, we’ve delivered dozens of handcrafted productions for some of the world’s most iconic brands, including Disney, Marvel, Hasbro, Guinness, Smyths Toys, and The Roald Dahl Estate; bringing to life IPs like Star Wars, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Avengers, and Transformers.
Stop motion is more than just a visually striking medium, it’s a celebration of tactile storytelling. Every frame is built by hand, and with that craft comes a sense of authenticity that CGI just can’t replicate. In many cases, the artistry behind the production becomes just as important as the final animation—inviting the audience to appreciate the process, not just the outcome.
Take our project with Guinness, for example: when they asked to make a real can dance, we didn’t reach for CGI, we reached for real cans, metal, rigs, and ingenuity. The result wasn’t just a dancing can; it was a showcase of what it means to fuse tradition, creativity, and tactile precision in service of a story that sticks.
The result was a mesmerising piece of stop motion animation that didn’t just entertain, it told a story of creative commitment. Every frame highlighted the physicality of the medium, drawing viewers into the craftsmanship behind the camera and reinforcing Guinness’s connection to legacy, substance, and bold storytelling.
