Isn't stop motion actually done with a regular camera or can be done? It's more about shooting -blank- amount of pictures for 1 second of animation. I think the old GI Joe cartoon and cartoons in general were around 30-35 frames per second whereas when Transformers the Movie came out, they actually shot around 45 frames/sec, iirc. Now, video games do what, 60FPS? The more frames, the smoother the action.

It'll all be done on the movie-making program on the computer in the end, right?
