Gulp. The world's largest stop-motion animation shot on a Nokia N8. from Nokia HD on Vimeo.

Stop-motion animation videos always amaze with the amount of meticulous work that is required in making the videos work.

Incredibly, this video depicting a fisherman on his daily routine - with a Jonah and the whale type twist - set a world record for the largest stop-motion animation set ever used, with its largest scene stretching to a massive 11,000 square feet.

The short film, titled "Gulp," was created by Sumo Science and was shot at Pendine Beach in South Wales using a Nokia N8 camera. If you would like to see exactly how this incredible stop-motion piece was shot, watch the "making of" video below to see how such a complex piece was made outside of the controlled studio environment.
