“Building A House” and its partner project “A House” explores the history of stop motion animation and the process that goes into its making. Through the examination of the practice I emphasize the importance that the fabrication of all the necessary elements to produce an animation has on the works final outcome and then what becomes of the props, sets, and puppets created after the production is concluded. The film, running three minutes three seconds, shows a quick moment in a father and daughters lives as well as shows the viewer the secret moments that live behind and between the frames.
