Cool Videos: Dot. The world’s smallest stop-motion animation character shot on a Nokia N8

JoBloJoBlo



Though the video below is essentially a viral advertisement meant to pimp the Nokia N8 cell phone and its video capabilities, it is nevertheless a very impressive short, filled with charming stop-motion work from the folks at Aardman Animations (WALLACE & GROMIT).

“Professor Fletcher’s invention of the CellScope, which is a Nokia device with a microscope attachment, was the inspiration for a teeny-tiny film created by Sumo Science at Aardman. It stars a 9mm girl called Dot as she struggles through a microscopic world. All the minuscule detail was shot using CellScope technology and a Nokia N8, with its 12 megapixel camera and Carl Zeiss optics.”

Thanks to my homeboy “Bradsworth” for the heads up!
