actually Czech film maker Svankmajer he is great also. Check him out if you don't already know about him. You probably already know of him.
Of course! I have seen most of his stuff. I'm czech too...
haha same. I would clone or paint out frame by frame in photoshop. I might have a few still kicking around. Then I might not most of them were at a time when I didn't care and just erased things.
The actually technique that uses people or inanimate objects in animation is actually called "pixelation" (way before being used as a cgi term) which was coined and practiced by National Film Board film maker and animator Norman McLaren. I use to watch all his films when I was a child. This is his most famous film.
