Most are stop motion, but some brickfilms are even made with CGI, traditional animation and live action.

This video will teach you the necessary steps to creating your own brickfilm, otherwise known as Legomation. You will learn all about brickfilms and how they are made. You'll see that stop-motion animation is a series of still photographs taken with a camera of a real object. Brickfilming is pretty much the same thing, but with LEGOs.

You'll also have to know about frames per second, and how many you should have to make a decent brickfilm. The more LEGOs you have, the easier it will be to finish one of these animate movies.
