Part 1-2
In Claymation, characters are initially made as a bendable metallic wireframe object, with clay or putty sculpted around it (more amateur methods use the plastic tubes from Q-tips). Most importantly, the backdrop and filming area must remain perfectly still at all times to ensure success for the final production. Photographs are then sorted in chronological order to create the final effect. These days, post-production usually involves programs such as Adobe AfterEffects.
Claymation's appeal came from its strange and unorthodox style of animating characters - making it so hard to pull away from. Series such as Gumby in the late 1950s, and the California Raisins throughout the 1980s, put the animation technique in the limelight. It was followed up by various claymation television specials that were regualrly seen throughout the 80s.
Stop-motion methods have become unpopular after the 1980s, and are rarely seen anymore. Thanks to directors like Tim Burton and Nick Park, the process has been kept alive with modern day films such as Corpse Bride and Wallace and Gromit. Previously, stop-motion has been one of the leading forms used in special effects, especially in the 80s: with films like The Terminator, Beetlejuice, Indiana Jones, and many others.

Part 3
I Personally love claymation and Stop-Motion, is one of the hardest but yet interesting thing about design, with that technique you can prove your creativity not only creating the characthers, also with the props, the background and all the stage. Is like you create a little world using just clay. As the article says, this days is common to see, a bunch of directors do stop-motion films, and doesnt have anything to envy the real-people-films, they are as Good and as Hard as any Film.
