Your photo, sculpted in clay

Claymation: stop-motion charm. Claymation recreates your photo as a scene from a handmade stop-motion film. People, pets, furniture and backgrounds are all remade in plasticine, complete with the little fingerprints you'd see on a real clay model, and lit with the soft glow of a stop-motion set. The recipe keeps the composition, so the clay version mirrors how you framed the shot. Faces and details turn chunky and handmade on purpose, which makes it a playful take on the moment rather than a lookalike portrait, and each result comes out a little different.

What you get

• Your whole scene remade in plasticine
• Visible fingerprints pressed into the clay
• Soft stop-motion lighting
• The composition of your photo kept
