All animations were captured in-camera using card stock and transparency sheets. Scanimation, also known as barrier-grid animation, kinegrams, or picket fence animation is an optical illusion that originated in the 1890s. To make the base image for the scanimations several frames of video were combined into one interlaced image, which was then printed on card stock. A transparent bar mask was printed next, placed on top of the interlaced image, and moved back and forth to create the illusion of movement. BY LAMAR+NIK
