a very clever and fun ad for a 'stop motion' add-on for Blender.
.. worth a watch even if you're not a CG artist.
Interesting that you posted a really for real stop-mo clip next…the CG mock-up is pretty good but still *just* lacks that "tactile" feel, like the fingerprints are missing!
(And just a note for sensitive ears for an f-bomb).
Fun though, and a fairly convincing way of doing it. I agree that dropping to twos just doesn’t cut it and looks weird. Funny, though, that there’s so much cover-up work done in CG on stop-mo films thesedays, like wire removal and face stitching, that the two "3D" animation techniques have and are becoming ever intertwined and almost interchangeable with any other, visually finishing anyway.
I keep reading from various sources that's Margot and Chris reprising their roles. I do hear Chris, but Margot? I'm not sure if that's her. She was a chain smoker, rest her soul, which did impact her voice. Maybe they re-pitched it? Or maybe every source I've read saying this is wrong.
