Description: This paper examines the place of digital photorealism in contemporary mainstream film making and some alternative paths, particularly stop motion animation, in visual storytelling and special effects. My first section outlines the history of stop motion and visual effects in two iterations of the film King Kong; the second part focuses on Michel Gondry’s The Science of Sleep (2005) as an example of the repurposing of stop motion animation as a narrative element that challenges mainstream conceptions of visual effects.
