Dot, the character in the world’s smallest stop-motion animation, a tiny 10mm tall character which fuses both technology and technique to illustrate the innovative microscope-mobile phone attachment CellScope. Brought to life by the talented team at Aardman by using rapid prototyping machinery from CGI models to create each frame of the characters movement as a separate sculpture. The end result, shot on a Nokia N8 using the very CellScope the animation advertises (a product being use to provide life-saving technology to remote and third world countries) see’s Dot traverse an unwiddining landscape with a menagerie of familiar objects from coins to bumble-bees.

Brilliantly shot and executed to demonstrate the innovation of the product were tasked with advertising.

Amazing!
I read recently that Robbie Williams was responsible for the Aardman Animation fire. Great to see they are still doing great work!
