Animation in which three-dimensional figures rather than drawings or paintings are photographed.

CONT

Pour le film de marionnettes [...] des siècles de pratique de la marionnette de théâtre ont créé un immense répertoire de formes et de tours de main qui ont favorisé la création d'une technique originale de marionnettes de cinéma, [...] fondée sur la construction de poupées bâties sur un squelette métallique dont les articulations stables supportent la marionnette dans les attitudes successives exigées par l'animation image par image.
