Techopedia Explains Clay Animation
Before the rise of advanced computer animation technologies, claymation and related physical animation models were the standard for physical animation or 3D animation. Cartoon drawings were often used for 2D animation. This physical animation industry thrived throughout the 1970s and 1980s and into the 1990s as the dominant model until the emergence of computer-generated imagery (CGI) and virtual animation.
