The Harryhausen Chronicles

documentary

Straightforward, loving trip through the professional life of hollywood's most skilled stop-motion artist. I saw his work as a boy and loved it. His Jason and the Argonauts has never been equaled...and never will be.

CGI is smooth and seamless but there's an undeniable reality visible in stop-motion and even though the seams show the audience gets a sense that there's a creative hand working here and so feels differently about the resulting effects.
