Alex Claymation Super Compilation #9

Another painstakingly complicated claymation film, Chicken Run met the challenges of very intricate armatures to portray the different anatomy of a cast of chickens and the two vastly different scales - that of the human world and that of the chicken coup.  This film stands out in that like many traditional pen-and-ink animations, the voice actor is first filmed as they read the script, allowing free gesture, emotion, and delivery of the actor, which will later help animators later compose their claymations.
