I used to be a cel animator, I'm pretty sure it's on 2's for the general case.

And for stop motion, it really depends, for example when aardman and dreamworks did Flushed Away, they freeze 1 frame every 4 frames to mimic their stop motion look. It might also be an economic choice. ----------------------------------------------- Ahmidou Lyazidi Director | TD | CG artist http://vimeo.com/ahmidou/videos http://www.cappuccino-films.com 2014-01-29 Matt Lind <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Stop motion is typically shot on 1's, cel animation on 2's. Haven't seen the Lego movie, but what usually gives stop motion that jerky quality is the lack of motion blur, and the depth of field not quite mimicking the real world.

Not sure what was done after I left. If you wait like 3-4 hours Raf should be awake and have downed a nice Australian coffee and will be able to shed more light. I do remember them animating on 2's at one point to give that stop-mo look though. Eric T.
