Stop motion of objects sanded half a millimetre at a time has been added as a related post - related requested by blacklotus90 on that post.

Actually it is called Animation, and Cyrus is a master of it. Although it is probably a mixture -- nobody is a purist anymore.


From Wiki:
Animation
A style and a technique where you imitate film characters being animated by stop motion. The technique of moving rigidly and jerky by tensing muscles and using techniques similar to strobing and the robot makes it appear as if the dancer has been animated frame by frame. This style was heavily inspired by the dynamation films created by Ray Harryhausen, such as The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad (1958).

And if you look at the list of male contestants, you'll see Cyrus having given himself the label of "animation."

The director of the movie "You're Next" applauded this 'homage'.

So wonderful

The Simpsons’ couch gag has become a great place for innovative filmmakers and artists to show off their take on the iconic nuclear family and the many denizens of Springfield. From the creators of Rick And Morty, to Don Hertzfeldt, Guillermo Del Toro, John K., and many others, all have left their individual stamp on the opening of the classic show and its opening segment. Now another artist has thrown his hat in the ring, albeit unofficially, with a gruesome blending of The Simpsons with Adam Wingard’s film You’re Next.

Lee Hardcastle is an experienced stop-motion animator that has applied his craft to a segment in The ABCs Of Death, a mash-up of Frozen and The Thing, and even a music video for the group Gunship. Now Hardcastle has brought that same off-kilter horror sensibility to his proposed couch gag for Springfield’s first family with a possibly NSFW-ish (due to clay violence and gore) and fairly disturbing short. Hardcastle’s couch gag opens serenely enough before devolving into a home invasion pastiche just like You’re Next—much to the appreciation and applause of Adam Wingard himself. It’s unclear although unlikely that Fox will actually use this couch gag on screen, but maybe it will help boost Hardcastle’s chances for crafting a Treehouse Of Horror intro/segment.

Very cool stop-motion animation.

Hi @lucky760, A very small thing, but I've been looking at some of the nothumbs videos, and have found a few like these ones where there used to be a thumb, and it's still in the videosift cdn, but it's no longer attached to the vid... any idea what happened?

I remember this being shown on a very old and famous TV talk show, can't remember which one. It was a humorous send in. It was right after I was separated from active Naval service and I never forgot it....the cigar weilding, leader of the pack and getting the girl up by stepping on her foot like one of those foot operated garbage can lids, cracked me up then and was delighted to see it again (it took one hour to find this piece of art work from so long ago). It's inspired me to think about making my own stop motion comedy piece.

Deserves a vote just for being so damned well done. I can't tell if it's stop motion or what.
