04.27.09KAMISUMOU – Origami Stop MotionWe like origami, we like stop-motion. Combining the two arts into an epic battle sequence is perfectly logical. Check out this great animation by YouTube user nariomaru! Here's another origami stop-motion clip. The animator uses a bluescreen background and suspends the paper crane in mid-air. The blue background is replaced with something different when the animation is finished. This is a great example of one method to make things fly.

01.16.09The Cat Who Makes Stop-Motion FilmsKomachan, a stopmotion cat, makes movies about stopmotion cats. Talk about a cute kitty. She even draws tiny storyboards. In Japanese, komo means "frame", and neko means "cat". You can visit the Komaneko website, but it's currently Japanese only. Visit the site and tell me... has someone rediscovered the Abominable Snowman from Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer? Maybe that's his cousin. Interestingly, Rudolf was animated in Japan. I think I'll do a post about this later.
