Head Gear Animation Specializes in Stop Motion Animation and Claymation. We like to get our hands dirty. Building models, puppets and sets using all kinds of materials and then nudging them, frame-by-frame in front of a camera makes us a happy stop motion animation studio. We focus on character development, bringing humour, charm and warmth to all of our projects. We have a long history of giving emotion and humanity to all of our animated characters. So much can be expressed in the movement of eyes and eyebrows. We also specialize in directing live action interacting with animated or puppeted elements. We understand that in comedy, timing is everything! The examples below will demonstrate our craft.
When you work with Head Gear, we walk you through the entire process from start to finish and make sure everyone is having a lot of fun along the way..
