Stop motion animation--hands down, the hardest form of animation, but when done right it can be used to tell awesome stories. The key is to have original stories to tell. Robot Chicken on the Cartoon Network uses action figures and pop-culture references. Showcasing hilarious takes on popular films/television from the 1980s-1990s, Robot Chicken grafts original narratives to already popular lore. Recently, Robot Chicken ran an entire episode dedicated to Star Wars. Re-imagining and telling new stories in that universe inspired me when thinking about how to craft the narrative to my film. What if I took a popular story and retold it through a different, original angle?
