Sometimes we get wrapped up in our specific profession and lose the ability to find creative sparks in other areas of our lives. So, in the hunt for inspiration elsewhere than web design, I went searching on Vimeo and found 50 awesome stop motion videos that are sure to give you creative energy.
I mean, watch some of these below and tell me you’re not inspired! And when you’re done, let us know in the comments which ones you liked best (my personal favorite one is the break dancing one).

Holy Cow! That must have taken some work man. Nice collection there. Kudos for the amount of time it must have taken to compile and thank you for giving me something to do all week long ;-) Good stuff!
Wow! Great work! It must have taken you quite a while to compile this list and the least I can do is take a minute or two to thank you for doing so.
hey man, almost every single video is down.

This video is a favorite of mine when it comes to stop motion. Should have easily made the list!
@joão: Looks like all the videos are up – try refreshing the page, I know there’s quite a lot of videos, so maybe some didn’t load (though they’re all from Vimeo and they should load fine)
Wow, that’s a lot of videos. This page alone took about 10 minutes before it finished loading. :)
I loved them all. Stop Motion, in my opinion, is a very interesting concept. Especially for music videos. Actually, I’ve seen some music videos with this concept. And I hope to see more!
awesome post!
firstly, this is an incredible post; relentlessly creative. secondly, can someone please tell me what song is used in white winter hymnal?
wow!
