Curated by WDFM Registrar and Curatorial Assistant Anel Muller, the exhibition explores the evolution of stop motion animation in the United States\u2014especially in special effects, television, and film\u2014while examining some of the key milestones and innovators including Willis O\u2019 Brien (<em>King Kong<\/em>), Tim Burton (<em>The Nightmare Before Christmas<\/em>), Art Clokey (<em>Gumby<\/em>), Ray Harryhausen (<em>It Came From Beneath the Sea<\/em>), Henry Selick (<em>Coraline <\/em>and<em> James and the Giant Peach<\/em>), Phil Tippett (<em>Star Wars<\/em> and <em>Jurassic Park<\/em>), and more.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><em>Between Frames <\/em>tells the story of a 100-year-old art form that has been used in special effects, television, and film, and launched Walt Disney\u2019s career in animation. The exhibition includes behind-the-scenes photographs from films such as <em>The Lost World <\/em>(1925) and <em>Jason and the Argonauts <\/em>(1963),\u00a0\u00a0 replicas of the original armatures from <em>King Kong<\/em> (1933) and <em>Mighty Joe Young<\/em> (1949), along with a Digital Input Device (DID) created just for <em>Jurassic Park <\/em>(1993). Puppets from the <em>Robot Chicken <\/em>(2005) opening sequence and a puppet mold from <em>Gumby<\/em>, as well as original armatures from <em>The<\/em> <em>Nightmare Before Christmas <\/em>(1993),<em> Coraline <\/em>(2009), and original storyboards from <em>James and the Giant Peach <\/em>(1996) will also be on view<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Visitors will be invited to manipulate and touch armatures at a special interactive station. A film loop of great moments in stop motion animation will also be running in the gallery.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special Effects<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The origins of stop motion animation are rooted in special effects. Discovered accidentally, stop motion was the key for filmmakers to open the door to fantastical realities. Stop motion animation enabled films like <em>The Lost World <\/em>(1925), <em>King Kong<\/em> (1933), <em>It Came From Beneath the Sea <\/em>(1955), and the original <em>Star Wars<\/em> (1977) trilogy to transport the audience into worlds where anything was possible and the unexpected was certain.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Feature Films<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before <em>The Nightmare Before Christmas<\/em>, stop motion animated features were a huge gamble for movie studios. <em>Hansel and Gretel: An Opera Fantasy,<\/em> released in 1949 and distributed by RKO, was the first American stop motion feature film, and had only modest success at the box office.\u00a0 After <em>Hansel and Gretel<\/em>, the lackluster success of stop motion features continued in the United States for many years.\u00a0 The success of <em>The Nightmare Before Christmas<\/em> sparked a renaissance in stop motion features with productions, in the last 20 years, such as <em>James and the Giant Peach<\/em> (1996) and <em>Coraline<\/em> as well as the creation of stop motion studios like Laika and Cinderbiter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Short Films<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Shorts were and still are the laboratories for most stop motion animators to test out new tools and techniques to improve the art form. Not only has this format launched the careers of many filmmakers like Tim Burton but it is has been the only format of stop motion animation to be awarded an Academy Award\u00ae for <em>Closed Mondays<\/em> (1974).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Television<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Commercials and television series have both made use of stop motion animation. Commercials from cigarettes to band-aids and even memorable characters like the <em>California Raisins<\/em> (1986) were all brought to life with stop motion. Stop motion animated television series in the United States are limited in comparison to Europe and Asia; it remains a great platform for the art form with characters like <em>Gumby,<\/em> which appeared in over 234 episodes over four decades beginning in the 1950s. While more recently, <em>Robot Chicken<\/em> (2005) has revived interest in stop motion animated series while sparking the imaginations of a new television generation.<\/p>\n<p><em>Between Frames: The Magic Behind Stop Motion Animation<\/em> was organized by The Walt Disney Family Museum.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special Programs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In conjunction with <em>Between Frames: The Magic Behind Stop Motion Animation<\/em>, the Museum is hosting a suite of special programs, screenings, and events.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Panel Discussion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Saturday, October 20<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Puppet Masters: Stop Motion Animation in Visual Effects Filmmaking<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>3pm | Theater<\/p>\n<p>General: $12 adult, $9 youth | Members: $10 adult; $7 youth<\/p>\n<p>Visual effects legend Ray Harryhausen inspired a generation of visual effects artists with his pioneering work in stop motion animation.

Join moderator Hal Hickel in a discussion of their work with stop motion, its history as a visual effects technique, and the transition into computer-generated animation.<\/p>\n<p>Muren, Tippett, St. Amand, and Berg have created visual effects using stop motion in some of the most famous films of the last three decades.
