Laika, makers of Coraline and the upcoming ParaNorman, gives us a peek inside their stop-motion animation process with this fun little “making-of” featurette. Here, we get to see how one of those stop-motion figurines is made, starting from the jointed skeleton, through the molded body and the sewn-on clothes.

Honestly, I could watch stuff like this all day, although I’d eventually convince myself that I could make my own ParaNorman doll. That can only end with burned rubber splashed across my counter tops.
