Cut-out animation is a two-dimensional form of stop-motion animation that involves the manipulation of characters that have been constructed from 'cut-out' pieces of paper. It is an animation technique that has its own unique aesthetic and encompasses a remarkable history, having played a very important role from the very beginnings of cinematic animation. It has been translated into a number of digital animated series, most notably the South Park series. The book investigates the history, theory and philosophy of this unique form of animation. Although scholarly in its approach, it is presented in a very accessible form to appeal to everyone who has an interest in animation practice, history and theory.
