This was founded by Peter Lord and David Sproxton back in 1972.

Four years later they then created Morph from the show ‘Take hart’.

Peter and David were always interested in attracting an older audience with model animation, so they created a show for Channel 4 called ‘Conversation pieces’.

In 1985 Nick Park joint them due to meeting at the National Film and Television School.

Then moving on into 1993 they created a world wide winning 30 minute animation called ‘The wrong trousers’. It became the best made animation ever.

An animation technique invented Max Fleischer. The Fleischer brothers used this to create Koko the clown. A strip of live-action footage can be traced and redrawn as

a cartoon. This technique was used in their pioneering series Out of

the Inkwell in 1919-29. It was used in films such as Beauty and the beast, Snow

white, Lord of the rings, Gulliver’s travels, Forrest Gump and Ghostbusters.

Motion capture:For motion capture you use human actors who are dressed in a leotard with integral reflective or magnetic markers. The actor performs the actions that are required, and the digital cameras capture the motion of the reflective markers. A computer processes and converts this motion into a composite figure. The end product gives the effect of an animated character acting directly with human actors.

Gollum is a good example of this.
