An Upcoming Blender Add-On For Creating Stop-Motion-Like Animation

The add-on is being made by the developers of Grease Pencil.

Blender Artists and Developers of the renowned Grease Pencil tool for Blender Daniel Martínez Lara and Antonio Vazquez have released two new demo videos for their upcoming add-on Claymation, a great tool that will allow you to create stop-motion-like animation in Blender. Previously, the add-on was called KeyMesh and was first announced back in 2019. Now, with the two new demos, we finally have a chance to learn more about the tool.

According to the videos, Claymation includes the option to convert Blender Grease Pencil objects to 3D clay, support for onion skinning, an option that shows ghosts of the keyframes before and after the current frame allowing animators to make decisions in the animation sequence, and the ability to turn annotations to clay on the fly. 

According to the developers, Claymation is still in alpha and needs more polishing and testing before release. You can learn more about the upcoming tool here.
