Funny stop animation movies

Corpse Bride - Tim Burton
Following the entertaining and funny The Nightmare Before Christmas, comes another stop animation from the master storyteller and talented Tim Burton. Just like the former, I love this one.

Some production notes: The movie was shot using commercial digital still cameras: Canon EOS-1D Mark II mounted with Nikon lenses. The Nikon D2H camera were not considered since during testing, random digital noise in dark areas cropped up. Now why these camera? Based on tests, the producers got better image quality compared with those from film! Now that is an awesome development. This cements digitals superiority!

Wallace and Gromit: the Curse of the Were-Rabbit - Nick Park & Steve Box
Close in the heels of the Corpse Bride, this British animation is another wonderful offer. While contrasting with the former as regards polish and technical breakthrough, this was done on traditional clay compared to silicon, the story is still great, funny and with a wild sense of humor that’s just British!
