Stop motion is when you can use cut outs from magazines, newspapers or your own drawings and animate them, you can make movies and short clips which show your cut outs moving etc. you can take random pictures and drawings, make minor adjustments to them and make them look like there talking and walking as well as other movements and even though you are restricted with the movements of your pictures the stop motion effect is very funny to look at and can be a very good piece of animation.
I feel that one of the strengths of stop motion is it is very quick easy and simple to make and create a short animation movie. the stop motion icon on the mac makes these animations very easy and quick to make and the outcome of your short or long animations are very affective when completed. And also you can be very random in your animations story line because randomness and weirdness really suits the way the stop animation works and moves.
However a weakness to using stop animation is that it is very difficult to make the movements of the animated characters smooth and move in time with edit audio like music or talking etc. and also you cannot move the cut outs and characters the same way you can move a 3d object the picture stays still and looks rather old fashioned which may not interest people.
