Published: April 30, 2020, 2 p.m.

Welcome back to yet another week about animation! This week, we\u2019re continuing our look at Stop-Motion with a studio that stands on its own as a leader in claymation.\xa0\nSince its founding in 2005, Laika has been making a name for itself among the animation elite. Though stop-motion is not the most popular or cost-effective form of animation, they continue to stun audiences with their technical mastery with each new film they produce.\xa0\nLast week we talked about Will Vinton, the father of \u201cClay-mation.\u201d This week we are picking up with the end of his story and the beginning of Laika. We will touch on each of their five movies, and what we \u201cLaika\u201d about them.\xa0\nYou can find show notes and sources\xa0https://www.blackcasediaries.com/\xa0or\xa0https://blackcasediaries.wordpress.com/\nThanks for listening!
