Made by Artillery Design, a british Design and Animation studio, for the Disney PlayHouse Channel, educating about recycling in a way that can be grasped by 1-4year olds.

This time lapse (~90x real-time) video-microscopy shows the interaction between two marine microorganisms, a foraminifer and dinoflagellate algae. The large disc-shaped thing is the foraminifer, it is collecting the dinoflagellates around it. These dinoflagellates are the same algae that live inside corals, and these foraminifera have a similar symbiotic relationship with their algae as do corals. Scientists can use this kind of time-lapse video to compress processes that happen on a longer time scale into a few seconds, increasing our understanding of the dynamic nature of the living world. Scott Fay of the UC Berkeley used a Nikon inverted phase contrast scope and a Nikon D80 camera.

Made by Javan Ivey who has a lot of cool tips for doing stop motion animation. This animation is a very cool technique he calls "stratastencil" where there seems to be an infinite number of layers of cardboard cut outs. Very cool.

Watch a 3-year-old girl make a stop motion animation with iStopMotion, a PowerBook and an iSight. The making of comes just after the main feature.
